Jan Dismas Zelenka's Hypocondrie A 7 concertanti is one of the most enigmatic pieces of the early eighteenth century. During the baroque era the term "hypochondria" encompassed depression, migraine, melancholy, and mania - but presumably the single movement, which was composed in Prague in 1723, should be understood first as a self-portrait of the composer, whose handwriting in itself is already a graphic expression of the gravest problems and disorders. Hardly any other baroque piece leaves the audience so disoriented!
