Sehr schön, in der Tat, aber für meinen Geschmack - wie fast alle Bach-Aufführungen in den letzten Jahren - gehetzt und übereilt. Das finde ich schade. Die Tempi entsprechen eher unserer hektischen Zeit als dem Barock, wo nur wenige Leute überhaupt eine Uhr hatten ...

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.

[@ralfrahn2291]

Brillantes Feuerwerk der Musik. Meine Nachbarn....Ich liebe Euch, Ihr seid wunderbar !! Bach ist unschlagbar. Hört nicht auf zu musizieren. Gott segne Euch!

[@peteroreilly8060]

Just brilliant. Words cannot express how good this music is, only ears can marvel and appreciate it.

[@MitchBoucherComposer]

The triumphant opening chorus is moving to me.

A mi el coro final ( y toda la cantata)

[@LuizBHMG]

I also prefer the chorus with this amazing polyphony, but the chorale is also lovely.

[@stuartparsons4948]

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.

[@marksurgeon3088]

Bach uses the same tune for the Chorale at the end of Cantata Selig ist der Mann BWV 57 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIW4enxurcRkd6M&ab_channel=NetherlandsBachSociety

[@notaire2]

Brillante und wunderschöne Aufführung dieser kompakten und fein komponierten Kantate mit gut vereinigten Stimmen des ausgezeichneten Chors und herrlichen Stimmen vierer genialen Solisten sowie gut phrasierten und perfekt synchronisierten Tönen aller historischen Instrumente. Der geniale Maestro dirigiert alles im inspirierenden Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Bach ist ewig unsterblich auch in dieser schwierigen Zeit. So ist diese wunderbare Vereinigung!

[@DaveTexas]

I don’t know why this came up as a KZbin recommendation for me, but it brought back a flood of memories. This was the first Bach cantata I ever sang back when I was in college some 35 years ago. It was terrifying and thrilling at the same time.

[@MegaFount]

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.

10:31 Lucia Swarts is simply the the most solid and confident cellist I have ever witnessed in an ensemble. She is a true pleasure to enjoy.

Absolutely.

[@gervaisfrykman266]

For me this is one of his most approachable cantatas. We know the Chorale, and to hear five settings of it, all beautiful, some very ingenious, is sheer delight. Lovely Miriam Feuersinger gives another performance to treasure.

[@nawfalsalman3074]

Thank you very much. I am realy glad to see Peter Kooy singing in this wonderful performance together with the other brilliant soloists.

I have not the slightest idea or imagination how someone on earth could performe this cantata better as it is performed here…. Wonderful orchestra and magnificent singers and soloists, especially the duetto was perfect. Bach is my Alpha and Omega.

[@marckg6950]

I'm not a musician. But being a high-end craftsman I agree. And the duet yes. My head sort of whipped around to hear it when it started

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!

[@RReinvent]

Those explosive opening chords are so typical of Dijkstra's way of engaging his listeners right from the start and keeping them engaged until the very end. Well done all!

[@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.

[@jefferyrowley8873]

Simply - a joy with every nuanced note. Beautiful tempo on what became a Shübler Chorale as" Kommst du nun, Jesu, vom Himmel herunter"!

Ouvindo Cantata (aria) Lobe den Herren BWV 137.esse trecho desse jovem barbudo e essa diva do violino de origem nipo, pensei estar num sonho de anjos, perdi a conta de quantas vezes ouvi e com certeza ouvirei por muito tempo, liiiindo

[@pamelafrancis4476]

Concordo absolutamente!

[@howardchasnoff208]

Bach the greatest orchestrator in musical history. Just listen to the tenor aria.

[@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"

[@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

[@howardchasnoff208]

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.

[@leodibarboure7603]

Hermoso. Bach te lleva de viaje ♥️.

[@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!!!

I like the subtle differences in the the way you do the first verse entries, same music, but the first time, I feel like your tempo is a tiny bit faster and the playing is a bit more hands on on the beats. The second time around you do slightly softer agogics, it's even more solemn than the first time. Very beautifully done, incredible musicianship.
