Let's say the emotional range of the recorder or the transverse flute are not on a par with those of a harpsichord or piano. So, after re-listening to half a dozen Telemann discs, a certain degree of sameness creeps in...  ???

I enjoy a personal limit on the Telemann I can listen to with pleasure, myself  8)

Well, if you can add  'iana' to the composer's name, it qualifies as 'quality drivel'  ;D

yet still I speak in verse, and call thee mine;
for music's truths and friendship's steady cheer,
are sweeter far than any stage could hear.

I was thinking more along the lines of "Paganiniana" or 'Rossiniana". But hey, one's drivel is another person's guilty pleasure, sometimes even an avowed favourite !
