It is nice just to hear music for the sake of music's sake without being bother by commercials and requests for interpretations, musicians, or any want wanting to know about credits. Thank you.

"Ach, schlage doch bald" at 6:30 is inexpressibly beautiful, can't really say why. Never heard pizzicato used like this.

This is by far the best performance on KZbin of this remarkable cantata - I am amazed that it has aroused so little comment. Harnoncourt was admittedly erratic, but here he hits the target with a thunk! The boy soprano is entirely appropriate (rather than an adult) as he perfectly evokes the liturgical ambience of the historic premier. All the soloists are first rate and strike a balance between the seriousness and operatic bravura of their pieces. Steve Pitts is right to pinpoint the tenor aria: How on earth did Bach dream up this extraordinary combination of oboes da gamba and plucked strings? These oboes are as much his invention as the clarinet was Mozart's. Bravo (Edward "de los castillos").

Oh Nikolaus Harnoncourt. There. Great interpretation.

[@alexreik424]

what is this painting's provenance,please?

[@johnward3392]

It's in the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Rouen, France, attributed to Caravaggio. I don't know where it was before that, but it's been there for 60 years.

[@hreader]

Definitely Caravaggio's style.
