Himmelfahrtsoratorium. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Besides the Weihnachtsoratorium BVW 248, Bach composed an additional work for the feast days of the church year 1734/35: The Himmelfahrtsoratorium BWV 11 [Ascension Oratorio]. Although in its dimensions and character the oratorio is akin to his cantatas, it occupies a special position as a result of the epic text on which it is based; the text incl…

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. The four orchestral suites of J. S. Bach, are superb examples of the composer's innovative mastery of the many dance forms popular in the courts of the 18th century. Reproduced from the authoritative Bach-Gesellschaft edition, this volume contains: Suite No. 1 in C major (BWV 1066) for two Oboes, Bassoon, Strings and Continuo Suite No. 2 in B minor (BWV 1067) for solo Fl…

Kantate Zum 4. Advent. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach’s cantata BWV 132 was written for the 4th Sunday in Advent, and the autograph score is dated 1715. It was composed while Bach was at Weimar, to a libretto by the Weimar Court Preacher Salomon Franck. Its subject matter is the testimony of John the Baptist addressed to the Christian community and to individual believers. Since the original conc…

Sonate en trio BWV Le 1038 est la première édition de musique de chambre pour flûte de Johann Sebastian Bach que Barthold Kuijken a préparé. Les chercheurs ont longtemps douté de la paternité de ce travail pour des raisons stylistiques, même si les pièces de performance de la principale source ont été écrits par Bach lui-même, mais malheureusement il a oublié, ou n'ont pas jugé nécessaire, d'ajout…

Kantate Zum Ratswechsel In Leipzig. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach's first cantata for the election of the Leipzig town council, composed in August 1723, is one of his most splendidly scored work from his Leipzig period. The choice of opening, with the 'representative' form of a French overture, was suited to a festive orchestral scoring. Two choral movements frame a middle section which consists…

Jesu bleibet meine Freude from Cantata 147. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach’s appointment as the Cantor at Leipzig’s Thomaskirche in 1723 required him to produce a new cantata for every Sunday service. Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring is taken from his Cantata No. 147 and is unusually elaborate, treated more like an aria than a chorale. It is perhaps the best-loved cantata movement from Bach’s entire o…

La Sonate en trio BWV 1038 pour traverso, violon et basse continue de Johann Sebastian Bach est énigmatique. Si l'on a pu prouver que le matériel conservé est de la main de Bach, la source n'est pas signée. C'est pourquoi son authenticité fut régulièrement remise en doute. Les musicologues d'aujourd'hui sont pourtant d'avis que cette sonate tout à fait charmante est une oeuvre originale de Bach. E…

Kantate zum 1. Sonntag nach Epiphanias. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Among the vocal compositions incorrectly attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach, the cantata has a place of its own, because its tonal language approaches the unmistakable style of the Thomaskantor. This applies especially to its choral movements and recitatives. In the surviving sources, only one of which dates back to the 18th centu…
