| Abstract | This document examines Georg Philipp Telemann’s motets in the context of the German motet tradition. Chapter One summarizes the German motet’s evolution from the fifteenth through the eighteenth centuries. Chapter Two considers Telemann’s motet writing style and its integration with accepted standards of the eighteenth‐century German motet. Chapter Three discusses manuscript sources, including a recently discovered collection of motets. Hidden away from Telemann researchers for decades, they were found in the Lowell Mason Collection of Yale University’s Music Library. Chapter Four explores characteristic features of nineteen Telemann motets individually, referring to the original manuscript sources, when possible. Chapter Five covers vexing questions of performance practice issues—e.g., the number of singers in Telemann’s choir, colla parte instruments, and continuo practice. Finally, Chapter Six integrates the above findings in an attempt to define the Telemann motet. |
