In his cantata the Hamburg Baroque master Reinhard Keiser pulled out all the stops of his compositional talent
In his cantata about the nymph Melisse and her three suitors, the shepherd Coridon, the gardner Melanthus and the fisher Polidor, who is ultimately chosen and thus becomes "happy" [glücklich], the Hamburg Baroque master Reinhard Keiser pulled out all the stops of his compositional talent; especially striking is his art of characterization through instrumental means.
