Marie-Sophie Pollak - Pimpinone OGeorg Philipp Telemann's intermezzo Pimpinone celebrated it's premiere at the Gnsemarkt Opera in Hamburg on 27 September 1725 as an insert in George Frideric Handel's opera seria Tamerlano and turned out to be a major public draw that continued to find it's place in the Hamburg performance program until 1740. Telemann too valued this work and published it on his own in 1728. Apart from Telemann's music, one reason for the success of this three part
