The city of Magdeburg honors Carus with the Georg Philipp Telemann Prize
2009
 In
2009 the city of Magdeburg, the birthplace of George Philipp Teleman (1681–1767),
will honor Carus-Verlag, Stuttgart, with the Georg Philipp Telemann Prize. Dr.
Lutz Trümper, Lord Mayor of Magdeburg, will present the award to Carus on 1
March 2009. This award is being bestowed upon Carus-Verlag for its service to
the dissemination and publication of the works of Telemann through their series
of editions entitled "Telemann-Archiv - Stuttgarter Ausgaben," which now numbers
more than 100 works. The primary focus of these editions is Telemann's church
music, and in this respect Carus-Verlag is one of the few specialized music
publishers which has, from early on, been devoted to publishing them in a special
series. The Carus Telemann program also includes a selection of instrumental
works as well as an ever-growing selection of compact discs.
The Georg Philipp Telemann Prize is awarded annually by the city of Magdeburg
for outstanding contributions to the study, interpretation, and cultivation
of the works of Georg Philipp Telemann. It is endowed with an award of 2,500
Euro.
