Sir John Eliot Gardiner has highly recommended this Cantata for those who are suffering from bereavement. Let's not forget how Bach uses music to bring life to eternal feelings of sorrow and comfort.

[@HuaHinTakiap]

Solace deep solace ... thanks ...

[@tobiasstudtheol]

@@ru99414, Bach mostly uses the Viol or in Italian Viola da Gamba if he talks about death. For that he needed a comforting and counseling sound and the Viola/Violoncello da Spalla wasn't really capable of achieving this sound. The movements of Bach including a Solo or ad libitum Viol are among the most touching and saddest movements ever written by Bach.

[@tobiasstudtheol]

@@Musicienne-DAB1995, completely understandable. I was discussing this with my counseling professor and she was really interested in this Cantata. So I wrote a small article on it with regard to the counseling effect of it. My result was that through the intimacy of the music Bach is embracing and comforting the listener. Although embraces are highly debated in the area of counseling this is the kind of embrace that is appropriate. It is a psychological embrace and not a physical one.

Without any doubt one of the most beautifull and mooving cantata of Bach. Very original instrumentarium used by Bach with the two recorders and viola da gamba. Also a great presence of the choir. The presence of the recorders assumes that the subject of this masterpiece is related to death... It is interesting to notice that, at the begining of barock era, Monteverdi used recorder for the pieces related to joy and Bach for the death. Bach will be the last great composer to use this amazing instrument before its renewal 200 years later. Writing some comments on the beautiful perfomance of Netherlands Bach Society: amazing because of the slow tempo which let the listener to hear the beauty of the voices and the great inspiration of this music.

Une cantate très humble, donc très hum-aime... Ici Bach nous fait voyager au travers de cette belle poésie musicale dans la plénitude de l'instant, on respire, on reprend notre souffle de vie, on se déploie dans l'espace et toutes nos angoisses partent autour de ces airs divins. Bach est bien plus qu'un simple accompagnement musicale, c'est une offrande permanente à l'humanité de sonorités on ne peu plus cosmiques. Écouter Bach c'est vivre, c'est le mouvement, la joie, l'extase mais aussi l'humilité, la simplicité de la chose. Que ce soi dans les suites pour violoncelle solo ou dans ce type de Cantate, Bach nous rappelle que nous venons tous de la terre, que notre existence est minime mais fait partie d'un grand cheminement qui nous dépasse largement. Merci de nous fournir des enregistrement de cette qualité sonore, accompagnés de prise de vues toutes plus exquises les une que les autres.

Very beautiful and moving. Years ago I read a newspaper piece by John Eliot Gardiner in which he remarked on the aesthetic power and spiritual consolation of Actus Tragicus in the face of death. I've never forgotten his words on the eerie silence that follows the trailing away of the orchestra and the soprano's voice as she asks Jesus to come, just before 11.50, into which silence He then steps forth, or so we may imagine. It is, said Gardiner, one of the most haunting moments in all music. I agree with him.
