On 2 December 1731, a teacher at the St Thomas School would have looked up in surprise. In church, he suddenly heard the music that Bach wrote for his birthday six years earlier, as played here by the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach. The opening chorus was followed by a second surprise. The recitatives were replaced with new Advent chorales. This way, it was immediately clear that this was an Advent cantata. Everyone knew these familiar and popular church songs.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on November 30th 2013 at the Walloon Church, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB or consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.
