Collegium Musicum 90 was founded by Simon Stand age and the late Richard Hickox in 1990, and is today a well-established ensemble for the performance of baroque and classical music, with a repertoire ranging from chamber music to large-scale works for choir and orchestra. The ensemble has recorded for Chandos nine discs of instrumental music by Telemann. In recognition of the success of the Telemann series in promoting the reputation of the composer, Simon Stand age was awarded the Georg-Philipp-Telemann-Preis in 2010. The works presented here all survive in autograph scores, or have autograph connections. Today only eighteen such scores of instrumental music survive from Telemann's long and prolific career as a composer.
