[@franschen5505]

Perfect for 2020. Despite the horrific year, was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan. Amen.

[@raffitorossian6994]

Bach is the legend of all time. Excellent choral, plus, excellent soloists and excellent orchestra. Thanks for uploading.

[@schaulinmarkus6002]

Ich habe dieses Werk schon oft gehört. Wieder einmal gefällt mir die Version von Netherlands Bach Society mit Abstand am besten. Besonders die Arie und das Duett klingen überirdisch schön., was nicht zuletzt dem Flötisten zu verdanken ist. Eine absolute Spitzenleistung von allen Beteiligten!!!

[@natasegundo]

As usually, this ensemble performing at their best. What a gift, truly enchanting. Thanks.

[@DaveyL1954]

Simply perfection. JS Bach was a genius. Imagine if he could see this.

[@sylviepierre1942]

Quel réconfort, cette paisible et pourtant entraînante cantate, pour un samedi aussi gris qui s'abat sur l'île de France comme un "hiver précoce" à la Ozu. Merci à la NBS, et les solistes sont formidables.

I'm older than dirt 58, little musical knowledge. Am listening to bwv. In order obviously at bwv 99. Amazing

[@infledermaus]

I was lucky to discover Bach at about age 16. I was blessed to meet someone who brought him onto my life in a big way with live performances on piano and harpsichord and tons of his music. Bach is my hero! I'm 68 now and thank the cosmos for gifting me with his music the past 50+ years! Fifty plus years of such enjoyment!

[@jans5331]

Can't get any better than this. Thank you.

I scarcely breathed during the duet. When Bach is played and sung like this his sublime genius is obvious.

i am simple man i see bach i click. btw i click alot.

[@infledermaus]

I clicked like before I heard the first note because I know it's going to be splendid experience hearing this! I just wish I was in the Netherlands to hear you perform this live. The first movement reminds me of my trips to Leipzig, sitting in Thomaskirche and contemplating how glorious that beer swilling, pipe smoking guy Bach's music is! Bach is my hero! Your performances are always spot on and that's why I subscribed!

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und lebhafte Aufführung dieser kompakten und fein komponierten Kantate mit gut harmonisierten und perfekt vereinigten Tönen aller historischen Instrumente sowie herrlichen Stimmen aller genialen Solisten und himmlischen Stimmen des ausgezeichneten Chors. Der Dialog zwischen dem Tenor und der Soloflöte klingt besonders schön und eindrucksvoll. Der erfahrene Dirigent leitet alles im gut phrasierten Tempo und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!

[@pjkhunold]

Willkommen im Club! An diesen hervorragenden Aufnahmen führt kein Weg vorbei!

[@tobiasstudtheol]

Kann ich nur beipflichten, allerdings ist ein kleines Manko, dass die Aufnahmen, meines Wissens nach, nur auf KZbin erhältlich sind. Die Aufnahmen würde ich gerne meiner 91-jährigen Großmutter geben, nur ist es eine legale Grauzone die Clips zu downloaden, umzuwandeln und auf eine CD zu packen. Da hilft nur das gemeinsame Hören und die anschließende Diskussion. Ist vielleicht sogar noch schöner.

What the Netherlands Bach Society performed DAS IST WOHLGETAN...

[@markbell9973]

Amen. So obvious. How come I, MOI, did not think of that witticism? But seriously: it's pretty hard (maybe never totally possible?) to get a performance up there to the level of ANY Bach score. (He didn't leave a single dud. Not one!! Dammit.) BUT when text, notes and performance align?! OmG, literally. DAS ist tatsächlich *wohlgetan* wie noch nie. And I am inspired to tryn make this same thing happen in my relationships, work, political involvement, and with anyone entreating me who genuinely needs something I might be able to give. Und, lieber Sebastian...du kleiner Teufel! Danke!! Nimm's doch an. Hastde gut verdient!

[@gfhit7520]

interesting choice of the extremely slow tempo for the duet (I have the feeling that it's a smidge too slow actually, listening to the woodwinds) -more of a meditation on the 'bitterness' and 'delusion' than a depiction of a 'struggle' (looking at the text), but a very fascinating effect nonetheless

[@johnsilverton639]

BWV 99 - "Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan" II Cantata for the Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity 1. Chor Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan, Es bleibt gerecht sein Wille; Wie er fängt meine Sachen an, Will ich ihm halten stille. Er ist mein Gott, Der in der Not Mich wohl weiß zu erhalten; Drum laß ich ihn nur walten. ("Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan," verse 1) 1. Chorale What God does is well done, His will remains righteous; However he begins my affairs, I will silently keep to Him. He is my God, who in need knows well how to sustain me; therefore I let Him alone rule. 2. Rezitativ B Sein Wort der Wahrheit stehet fest Und wird mich nicht betrügen, Weil es die Gläubigen nicht fallen noch verderben läßt. Ja, weil es mich den Weg zum Leben führet, So faßt mein Herze sich und lässet sich begnügen An Gottes Vatertreu und Huld Und hat Geduld, Wenn mich ein Unfall rühret. Gott kann mit seinen Allmachtshänden Mein Unglück wenden. ("Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan," verse 2) 2. Recitative B His word of truth stands fast and will not betray me, since it will not let the faithful fall or be destroyed. Indeed, since he leads me on the path of life, my heart shall take hold of itself and be content in God's fatherly love and mercy and shall have patience, when a mishap disturbs me. God, with His almighty hands, can turn aside my misfortune. 3. Arie T Erschüttre dich nur nicht, verzagte Seele, Wenn dir der Kreuzeskelch so bitter schmeckt! Gott ist dein weiser Arzt und Wundermann, So dir kein tödlich Gift einschenken kann, Obgleich die Süßigkeit verborgen steckt. 3. Aria T Do not shudder, despairing soul, when the cup of suffering tastes so bitter! God is your wise doctor and miracle-worker, therefore He cannot offer you deadly poison, although its sweetness might be concealed. 4. Rezitativ A Nun, der von Ewigkeit geschloß'ne Bund Bleibt meines Glaubens Grund. Er spricht mit Zuversicht Im Tod und Leben: Gott ist mein Licht, Ihm will ich mich ergeben. Und haben alle Tage Gleich ihre eigne Plage, Doch auf das überstandne Leid, Wenn man genug geweinet, Kommt endlich die Errettungszeit, Da Gottes treuer Sinn erscheinet. ("Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan," verse 4) 4. Recitative A Now, the covenant sealed from eternity shall remain the foundation of my faith. It speaks with confidence in death and life: God is my light, I will give myself to Him. Even if every day has its particular trouble, yet after the sorrow withstood, when one has wept enough, the time of redemption comes at last, when God's loyal intention is made clear. 5. Arie (Duett) S A Wenn des Kreuzes Bitterkeiten Mit des Fleisches Schwachheit streiten, Ist es dennoch wohlgetan. Wer das Kreuz durch falschen Wahn Sich vor unerträglich schätzet, Wird auch künftig nicht ergötzet. 5. Aria (Duet) S A When the bitterness of the cross struggles with the weakness of the flesh, neverthless it is well done. Whoever, through misapprehension, considers the cross unbearable, will also in the future never share delight. 6. Choral Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan, Dabei will ich verbleiben. Es mag mich auf die rauhe Bahn Not, Tod und Elend treiben, So wird Gott mich Ganz väterlich In seinen Armen halten; Drum laß ich ihn nur walten. ("Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan," verse 6) 6. Chorale What God does, is well done, I will cling to this. Along the harsh path trouble, death and misery may drive me. Yet God will, just like a father, hold me in His arms: therefore I let Him alone rule. "Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan," Samuel Rodigast 1674 (verses 1,2,4,6 - mov'ts. 1,2,4,6; source for the others)

Can anyone tell me which flute (brand/make) Marten Root is playing? I love the sound, though I understand that much of it is attributed to Mr. Root’s musicianship.

[@sharpjs]

I think it is a copy of a Heinrich Grenser flute, made by Fridjof Aurin. It certainly looks like the H. Grenser shown on Aurin's site, and Root has been seen playing other Aurin-made flutes.

[@martinbeach8459]

I wonder why so many basses need to pretend to be women, so they can sing alto. I'm surprised more altos don't claim sexual harrassment, due to their being squeezed out by the fake altos. Come on, they (women) can sing alto with their natural voice, all they need is thicker vocal chords than a soprano..... Just get in line & wait for a chance to sing a bass aria & let the real altos have their moment of glory. Which is not impt in Bach's eyes, since he always said "Soli Deo Gloria". I rest my case.
