Our Take

In the wonderfully bizarre world of classical music, Telemann stands out as a true original. And with SCHACHTNER / HAM RATS / ECKERT's latest album, "Telemann: Moralische Cantaten," we are taken on a wild ride through the German composer's moralistic musings.

From the opening track, "Virtue Triumphs over Vice," to the closing number, "The Scourge of Hypocrisy," the trio breathes new life into these centuries-old cantatas. SCHACHTNER's haunting vocals soar over HAM RATS' expertly crafted harpsichord melodies, while ECKERT's masterful cello playing adds depth and drama to each piece.

But what truly sets this album apart is its irreverent sense of humour. Telemann was known for his wit and satire, and SCHACHTNER / HAM RATS / ECKERT fully embrace that spirit, injecting each track with a healthy dose of cheeky charm.

Standout moments include the cheeky ode to gossip in "The Whispering Crowd" and the raucous celebration of gluttony in "Feast of Folly." But it's not all fun and games – tracks like "The Sting of Regret" and "The Burden of Sin" delve into the darker side of human nature, reminding us that even in the midst of laughter, there is always a touch of melancholy.

In conclusion, "Telemann: Moralische Cantaten" is a delightful romp through the mind of one of classical music's most enigmatic composers. SCHACHTNER / HAM RATS / ECKERT have truly outdone themselves with this album, and I can't wait to see what they have in store for us next.
