In 1725 Georg Philipp Telemann's cantata cycle was published in Hamburg under the title: Harmonischer / Gottes-Dienst / oder / geistliche / Cantaten / zum allgemeinen Gebrauche / welche / zu Beförderung so wol der Privat-Haus- / als öffentlichen / Kirchen-Andacht / auf die gewöhnlichen Sonn- und Fest-täglichen / Episteln durchs ganze Jahr / gerichtet sind / à / In die Musik gebracht, und zum Druck befördert / von / Georg Philipp Telemann / Chori Musici Hamb. Direct. / à
The cantata Lauter Wonne, lauter Freude was written for the fourth Sunday in Advent. In the TVWV the cantata is recorded under the number 1:1040.1) The text is by Matthäus Arnold Wilkens (1691-1745)2) and refers mainly to the 4th chapter of St. Paul's Epistle to the Philippians, verse 4 to 9.
The print of 1725 served as a draft for this edition, which is kept in the Royal Library of Copenhagen in the Giedde's Music Collection under the shelf mark [mu 6208.0586 (XI, 8)3). My special thanks are due to the direction of the music library and in particular to Mrs. Susanne Thorbek for their friendly support and kind permission to print this edition.
The notation (including keys and accidentals etc.) has been modernised according to modern customary rules. The text on the other hand has deliberately not been modernised. Additions and corrections made by the editor are indicated directly in the music or in foot notes. Very few errors have been corrected discreetly.
According to the master copy in the first aria, the 2nd half of bar 7 up to the 1st half of bar 17 has repeat marks. The repeat has been written out in this edition to make page turning in the score more convenient. The passage marked with "Vi-de" can be omitted if required.
In the foreword of his Harmonischer Gottesdienst Telemann elaborates on various aspects of performance practice. The present cantata is written for high voice meaning expressly for soprano or tenor. It is possible that during the ripieno parts which are marked with forte, the recorder is supported by a violin that plays one octave lower than notated. The recorder part can entirely be played by a violin. In this case at least the ripieno parts should be played one octave lower.
Telemann goes into great detail about how to treat the voice in the recitatives and demonstrates by many examples in the music that the notation often deviates considerably from the desired performance. This concerns in particular the last two notes before rests, but transition notes and suspensions can nevertheless be inserted in other places. In all cases the recitative enjoys rhythmical freedom. Detailed information on the performance of recitatives in church is to be found among others in Tosi/Agricola's Anleitung zur Singkunst.4)
