Tafelmusik significant composers of "Tafelmusik" included Johann Schein, whose "Banchetto musicale" of 1617 acquired considerable fame, and Michael Praetorius, who wrote about the phenomenon of "Tafelmusik" in his "Syntagma musicum" of 1619. Music from Schein's collection is still performed by early music ensembles with some regularity. The "Tafelmusik" or "Musique de Table" by the Baroque composer Georg Philipp Telemann is perhaps his most celebrated collection of music. Composed in 1733, Telemann's "Tafelmusik" has been compared as a collection to the renowned Brandenburg concertos of Johann Sebastian Bach in clearly demonstrating the composer’s supreme skill in handling a diversity of musical genres
