Yes - it's a joyous opening to the cantata!

[@marksurgeon3088]

Likewise, the Chorus at the beginning and the Chorale at the end just encapsulate this beautiful Cantata so well.

Little by little the Netherlands are conquering the world with these superlative performances of Bach. My soul soars, I am a bird flying high in the sky with majestic views of the universe. Thank you so much for this priceless gift. Every time I hear your performances my soul is enriched. Thank you all for your passion and limitless talent. I salute the Netherlands and hope to visit soon.

[@erikgero1320]

Just for clarification: Yes, six movement from Bach's cantatas were arranged for solo organ. These are called "Schübler Chorales" after the arranger, who was a student of Bach. These arrangements were approved ( possibly corrected) and published by the composer and since than favorite pieces for organists and music lovers. The second aria of Cantata #137 is #6 of the Schübler Chorales. This performance of Cantata #137 is outstanding, uplifting, heavenly. Thank you!!!

In undergraduate counterpoint, I studied this work as an example of chorale embellishment. Bach's inventiveness continues to stun me. Why are those leaps in the string writing also so much fun to sing? How marvelous his varieties in texture and dance rhythm. This performance stands out for many reasons, not least the ACTIVE LISTENING evident in the video. How lucky we are!

[@marckg6950]

Amazing, a cantata cramed in with hundreds of other works ann be picked out like you did. Was thinking so many of these works could be sound tracks.

[@benjaminflorinda]

Dear Friends. Many thanks for helps helps. Gog realy bless You. Sincerely You, Florinda Benjamín, from Dominican Republic.

[@majigaining]

Bach arranged this piece based on a hymn by a German hymn writer Joachim Neander. The hymn in English is called Praise to the Lord Almighty. You will hear the theme came our quite clear at the last movement. Sadly not a lot of churches in India sing this song, even in the Baptist North East hardly anybody knows this song, except may be at more sophisticated institution like Patkai Christian College.

[@marksurgeon3088]

thanks, I have been trying to find the link between this chorale and the hymn we know today. Thanks

[@rafalo007]

Magnifique interprétation !

[@amelinkydinky]

The second movement was transcribed by Bach himself for the collection of organ chorales called the Schubler Chorales. Bach was a prolific transcriber of his own works. See how many times he transcribed the fabulous Preludium for violin in E major = Sinfonia of Cantata No. 29 "Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir"

[@MegaFount]

Thank you Netherlands for these stupendous performances. Every single one a priceless gem to be cherished and conteplated. Thank you for keeping the incomparable Bach alive for us all.

Vocally instrumentally and in terms of counterpoint this cantata is remarkable. The Alto aria with the violIn in particular. The duet that follows is a testament to Bach's skills at counterpoint. The next movement has a tenor with cello and a trumpet playing the chorale melody.

Absolutely nuts. Imagine what went through peoples minds when they heard this, although this type of music had been around a while still. but never to the unapologetic level of Bach.

A wonderfully nuanced performance of this early work of Bach. His strength and versatility come through clearly. Bravo!

[@timothycook3828]

Thank you for that clarification!

[@herrickinman9303]

Why do you call this "an early work of Bach"? It was first performed in 1725, when Bach was 40 and had already been composing for more than 20 years.

Apart from the sublime performance by all the artists, and the perfectly recorded sound track I find that the video is the icing of the cake. Always spot-on. Just look at the facial expression of the cellist Lucia Swarts and Dijkstra at the end of the alto aria from 6:49 and the following 10 seconds. Wonderful!

[@mjarail]

The trumpet part in the tenor aria has "bent" notes, i.e. notes made by "lipping" up or down the natural harmonics.

[@marka5478]

The solo trumpet part during the bass aria calls for notes outside of the harmonic series. With an authentic trumpet, the player has to "bend" the notes.

Genauso geht es mir auch. Erst mochte ich ihn nicht so, aber jetzt immer mehr.

I love how Bach uses pedal points alternatim between soprano and bass to swap melismas. Invertible counterpoint is such a democratic idea!

My question is: the last chorus is a famous song of Church. Did they stand up on the end of the cantata?

[@LRRPF52]

The title is a little puzzling, possibly misspelled by modern German standards: Lobe den Herrn would be correct, meaning 'praise the Lord', whereas Herren is plural.

[@karinlauterbach3157]

Ah nein, das ist nicht Plural, das ist nur eine Auffüllung, um im Rhythmus des Liedes zu bleiben. Sowas gibt es im Deutschen in Liedern oder in Gedichten oft.

[@herrickinman9303]

Notice that the singers sing "Lobe den Herren," not "Lobe den Herrn." This is _altdeutsch._ The modern "Herrn" is a contraction of "Herren."
