Celebrity culture thrived during the baroque period and Georg Philipp Telemann was one of the stars! A prolific composer of over 3,000 compositions that demonstrated an uncanny sense of popular musical trends, Telemann was the most famous composer in Germany in his day. Being skilled on eleven instruments gave him the ability to understand “each instrument and what suits it best”. He absorbed and incorporated music from throughout Europe, and boasted that he could compose in the “Italian, French, English, Scottish and Polish styles”. Telemann was also at the forefront of printing technology and was a brilliant promoter of his own publications, amassing hundreds of subscribers.
