Bach - Cantata Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen BWV 51 - Van Veldhoven | Netherlands Bach Society

The trumpet comes straight to the point, creating the ecstatic mood of this cantata - recorded here for All of Bach with Jos van Veldhoven - which revolves around jubilation and gratitude. In his arrangement, Bach emphasises the jubilant mood right from the start, with the rapidly repeated notes and the way in which he illustrates the word ‘jauchzet’. The expression of the words about ‘lallen’ (chatter) in the second movement is very effective, as is the final rich Italianate string accompaniment in the chorale ‘Sei Lob und Preis mit Ehren’.

Someone once said something to the effect that Handel's is earthly music that lifts the soul to Heaven, and Bach's is heavenly music that comes down to earth to touch the soul.

[@DaigoParry]

I also am trying to imagine what the scene was like in Isaiah 6:3 where the Seraphim were calling "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory!" There are 2 musical compositions that come to mind. 1) Bach's Mass in B Minor: Sanctus. (Sanctus means Holy). And the other is Messianic music, Kadosh (Paul Wilbur and Elisheva Shomron) (Kadosh means Holy). Also, someone had a vision or dream of Michael the archangel giving him music. "You're the Almighty God" by Nikos Politis. It's a song for spiritual warfare.

[@weechid9784]

Brava. She looks as if she is enjoying every minute too.

[@ugolomb]

I think that when a cantata has a prominent obbligato, the player -- in this case, trumpetist Robert Vanryne -- should get the same billing as the vocal soloist. Fantastic perofrmance all round

[@VliegerNL]

Unsurpassable. Pure perfection. And let’s not forget the sound crew/engineers who create some of the most appealing recordings for those of us who cannot be at the actual events. You set the bar very high!

From the south of silence, in a corner of time, on an island lost in the Patagonian channels, with soft snow, and in the longest night of the Southern Hemisphere, my eternal thanks to the NBS for being able to listen and contemplate this music channeled from the Divine. (thanks for the subtitles)

indeed a spendid performance, but this is not a christmas concert - but the cantata for the 15th sunday after Trinitatis, usually around the middle of september.

[@altheawaites8882]

What a magnificent performance of Cantata 51! The Netherlands Bach Society is incomparable and I think Bach himself would have been pleased to hear his music performed with grace and respect for his musical and technical demands...BRAVO to the ensemble and the brilliant singer!

[@christopherhug4633]

I think Herr Bach would be amazed to hear this!

[@joelsheffield9376]

This performance is spectacular! Maria Kohane manages to make the vocal pyrotechnics seem effortless, and she smiles throughout, projecting all of the joy in the piece. At the same time, the recit and aria are profound. Why is this not published broadly? It seems to be available only through the NBS site, and is otherwise unlisted.

[@dbdhsa]

Another superb cantata - BWV 84 - with Maria Keohane and many of the same NBS musicians was released more widely on KZbin recently. So it will happen. They are indeed the best of the best. Such a privilege to have access to this music. (And now it has happened - great that this truly spectacular version of BWV 51 will now be seen by a wider audience!).

[@greglane2283]

As a Catholic, I thank God for the Reformation. Without it we may not have had a JS Bach. Cantata BWV 51 is a jewel. I wonder if Bach had a woman soprano to sing this, or a boy soprano from the Thomas school. The level of musicianship must have been stunning. Well done Netherlands Bach Society.

[@jensnitsche4994]

Seine Frau hat oft die Gesangsparts übernommen...Das Niveau der Musiker war technisch meist laienhaft bezüglich dieser Kompositionen und wenig motiviert und oft auch zu Wenige... und die Zeit bis zur Aufführung war zwangsläufig kaum eine Woche. Außerdem bekam er Kritik von den Kirchenoberen, seinen Vorgesetzten, er wurde sogar vertraglich verpflichtet, nicht zu " viele Töne" zu verwenden. Heute Gott sei Dank, es war ihm egal. Bach selbst durfte seine brillanten Kompositionen wohl nur in den seltensten Fällen so hören können, wie es uns heute vergönnt ist.

[@rouzbehmosavari4082]

Bach's wife was a professional singer( as he lived in Leipzig).

[@matthirt7863]

According to most Bach scholars, this cantata was most likely written for Christoph Nichelmann, an especially talented boy soprano who was attending the Thomasschule at that time, took lessons in Keyboard and composition from Bach's eldest son Friedemann and later went on to work as a professional musician/composer.

[@christopherwaz6913]

Who says JSB would've had less talent if he was a Catholic? You might've heard about the B minor Mass considered the crown jewel of his output. It is not at all a Protestant work. Would Michelangelo, Vivaldi, Monteverdi, Da Vinci be greater artists if they were Protestants? Yes, JSB used Protestant choral material for a lot of his work but he'd do equally, if not better, with Gregorian chant.

[@pct2000]

As an atheist, I have to admit the music of JSB is the closest I get to accepting religion

[@chantdonchant]

Such a fantastic performance of astounding virtuosity! Obviously Keohane and the trumpeter blew me away, but also the cello and bassoon in the “Höchster“ and the downright jazzy swing of the duetting violins in the chorale!

[@porcinet1968]

What a gorgeous performance of this work this is: Maria Keohane is even able to articulate the words coming off that high C in the first aria. I adore her way of singing, she is a reliable source of delight on this wonderful channel.

[@porcinet1968]

she seems ageless, I realise the oldest record of hers I own is from 2001! the Art of the Baroque Trumpet on Naxos which is a wonderful series

[@porcinet1968]

I must mention how wonderful the trumpet player is as well but this incredibly virtuosic piece has been an obsession of mine since my teens. Van Veldhoven has that ability to make me think "wow at last a really well played and sung version of this masterpiece" very often as I view this channel. To me he has all the great qualities of the Harnoncourt, Gardiner and Suzuki cantata sets but with even better singing and playing. His St Matthew Passion on here is my favorite ever recording of that masterpiece.

[@TheSoteriologist]

What a voice !

[@porcinet1968]

and the way she has a little smile to herself every time she perfectly nails a high note! I adore her

[@johnlewis6880]

At Last. Ever since I discovered NBS during the pandemic I have been waiting for BWV 51 to make an appearance. I first became aware of this cantata when it was included as an add-on to one of the first CDs I bought a long time ago. I think they used it to fill up space so customers would not feel cheated because the featured performance of Magnificat did not fill up the CD. I was listening to my new CD while changing the oil on my boat engine. The Magnificat performance was great and then Emma Kirkby (who I had never hear of) totally distracted me from the task at hand with this stunning compostion. To me this cantata displays Bach's incredible gift for treating instruments in the orchestra as partners with the soloists in beautiful duets. He did that a lot with human voice and oboes. In this piece he pairs a soprano with a trumpet, a basson and a cello. Maybe there are more examples that I have not noticed yet. Thanks you NBS for your generous gift to the world with so many wonderful performances

[@porcinet1968]

I have that Kirkby recording and to my ears Maria is the only singer I know of who matches up to Emma Kirkby's sense of celestial joy. In fact I think I love Maria even a little bit more because her singing is just so full of personality and interest.

Hearing this splendid interpretation by Maria Keohane and the NBS, I wish it was Trinity several times a year.

[@stephenlee1756]

Bach said it was for any occasion. My own opinion is that he composed it for Anna Magdalena to sing!

[@Attariana]

Thank you for this fantastic performance, bach could transform human to anther level if people on earth could understand his feeling hidden behind his works Imagine here is pretty soprano with powerfull voice but tompet comes in Violin comes in, they play their note different from each other what really especially written for them but all in all are in great and greater harmony therefor the whole piece becomes a masterpiece like an airplane take off and finally lands and all part of engine works in harmony to make it possible like surgery and like many human masterpieces but unfortunately we humans haven't learned to live together like this . If we had learned there would be a global democracy

[@powerliftingcentaur]

My God, that lead singer is glorious. I haven’t heard sing in quite awhile. Now, here she is. I can’t get enough of her singing. This must be Maria Keohane. Please engage her as often as possible.

Erfreuliche und wunderschöne Aufführung dieser kompakten und fein komponierten Kirchenkantate mit durchsichtiger doch herrlicher Stimme der genialen Sopranistin sowie gut harmonisierten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Originalinstrumente. Der intelligente und gelehrte Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Barockensemble im veränderlichen Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Tiefempfunden vom Anfang bis zum Ende!

[@jensnitsche4994]

Beeindruckend! Eigentlich unerklärlich ,woher jmd. wöchentlich die Energie nimmt, um solche komplexen Meisterwerke zu erschaffen und einstudieren. Man würde ihn heute wohl als " Nerd" bezeichnen....

[@J3th973]

Neben der unerhörten Leistung der Gesangssolistin, die die vielen kleinen Noten in tollem Tempo sauber und klar artikuliert erklingen läßt, möchte ich noch auf den wahrscheinlich japanischen Violinsolisten hinweisen, der mit Feuer, Kraft und Gefühl seine Stimme hervorragend und virtuos präsentiert. Ganz excellent!

Great performance and wonderfull singing! I couldn't help but notice that Lucia Swarts is using a classical bow and also heard it affecting the articulation. Nobody needs a historical performance praktice police but I'm curious why she chose to go with that one instead of a baroque bow.

[@bach]

Thanks for your compliments! Actually, Lucia uses an original, old English bow in this performance. The bow is made of meadwood, which is very lightweight. This makes the bow look thick, but it's definitely not a classic bow.
