So, is Leo playing in C major in order to match the chamber instruments in D major at A=415? (I'm guessing the organ is pitched a tone higher?).

[@markbell9973]

American conductors I work with don't get what it takes to work with a keyboard/console that can be awkwardly placed so that there is little or no constant contact between organist a d conductor. And so they dismiss both organist and organ as crazy+incompetent. In all other things these highly trained conductors know just what to do. But with the organ: suddenly ignorance! A very fine conductor with a D.M. in my city once condescendingly found a second conductor who had to watch him the main conductor from the organ loft..stand over the very able organist like Victorian scold, and duplicate the main conductor's every move. Teach that rebellious boy a lesson once and for all. Only in America, right?

For those who wonder at the organist looking intently at the music and never at the keys, my aunt, who taught me piano used to say, "Look at the music. The keys don't move."

[@AlistairBostrom]

100% agree. If I start looking at my hands while playing, it just makes for confusion. If one has been doing it long enough and knows the music, the hands will go where they need to, on their own.

As a child, we woke up, on every Sunday morning, with this magnificent cantata by my father, a Lutheran pastor.

[@AlistairBostrom]

Isn't it wonderful and amazing how Bach, via this conduit of performers today, can still reach out and stir such deep emothions within us?

[@G0rd0nHealth]

The organ in Sinfonia is so powerful and precise. What a beautiful piece of music!

[@aaronalter2000]

What's also amazing is that the opening Sinfonia in this cantata was an arrangement of the Prelude of the solo violin Partita in E-major. Bach had all of those harmonies in his head when he wrote the solo violin work.

[@premierepasta1562]

The sheer beauty and glory of this cantata is brought to such glory in this performance. Never have I heard the opening Sinfonia so vibrant and triumphant and the Wir danken Dir so resonant and full-bodied. The polyphony here is so rich, it stirs you to cry. The clear sense of direction in the first aria Halleluja, Stärk und Macht is such a revel to watch. And he absolutely kills those trills! The quartet's intimate and virtuosic sound is so delightful to hear. And then the Gedenk an uns is just unfathomable in its beauty. The sonorous sounds of the strings and the Siciliano rhythm supports the entire piece as the stunning voice of Maria Keohane, the soprano, sings on top. There's a very striking and sincere beauty to this performance of the aria; it paints a very human sound. I cannot thank the Netherlands Bach Society more. I've listened to this performance for months on repeat. But then the solo work they they put out like Bach's Cello Suite No. 2 also reveals such an intimate and personal sound, each artist being able to bring Bach to life so vividly and with such virtuosity and skill; it arrests you. And to top it all off, it's all presented in pure HD.... I mean come on😩
