		With Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) whose monumental work "Passion according to St. Matthew" for soli, eight part chorus, a choir of boys, orchestra, and organ is the creation of a great genius imbued with profound faith, the form reaches its highest development.

		This predominant importance given to cantabile melody, to song, overthrew the barrier between the different classes of music by upholding as the model for all the class in which vocal melody and the art of singing had blossomed into perfection: the Italian opera.
		The oratorios of Telemann, Hasse, and Graun and the masses of the period are in the style of opera.

	DR 6.4: A repertoire list: works of Georg Philip Telemann which utilize oboe d'amore
		Current scholarship regarding the oboe d'amore has concentrated in three major areas: surveys of the repertoire available for the instrument, [2] catalogs of extant oboes d'amore from the eighteenth century, [3] and detailed studies of Bach's usage of the instrument.
		[4] Composers writing regularly for the oboe d'amore included Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767), Johann Gottlieb Graun (1703-1771), Karl Heinrich Graun (1704-1759), Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel (1690-1749), and Christoph Graupner (1683-1760).
		Georg Philipp Telemann, one of the most prolific and respected composers of his time, wrote extensively for the oboe d'amore -- at least twenty-two works which use the instrument can be attributed to Telemann.
