The fugue that starts at 3:35 to 6.05 it's one of the best works ever written in the history of music.

[@Nooticus]

I truly think you’re right. One of the most exciting and beautiful things I’ve ever heard!

[@Nooticus]

Undoubtedly. There are 0 things better.

[@angryjalapeno]

The placement of English translation in there adds immensely to the enjoyment.

[@voxpopulivoxdei1155]

Was wären wir ohne Bach, ohne diese wunderbare Musik?

[@fogonpr]

Nix

[@bobh5087]

Even though concise, the concluding fugue is surely one of Bach's crowning choral achievements. Don't you sense that he knew he had a grand idea, and took great care and joy in developing it. All of the Bach motets are pure gold! It's always fun to have the vocal parts duplicated by solo stringed instruments -- even though this is a perhaps questionable practice. Also, I would have liked to have heard more of the continuo ensemble. But the boy trebles and altos sang with great finesse and spirited articulation.

This recording is absolutely fabulous. It's a bit slower than most recordings I've heard thus far, but no less exciting because of it's fantastic clarity. Wonderful!

[@ricepe2379]

Genial, fantastic, Bach is the master of the Genius

[@alexanderp3689]

Thank you very much for uploading one of my favourite Bach motets.

[@levaslevas]

If the real Handel saw what classified as modern music, he'd fall back into his grave as soon as he were to leap from it.

[@raphbiss1]

Every time you upload a video it legitimately makes me happy

[@d181939]

Bach and the Beatles are my favs....love the motets.

[@Nooticus]

Truly mind-blowing beauty and counterpoint!

[@Nooticus]

I always come back to this piece in the worst nights, and Bach is always here for me. Thank you Bach

[@Nooticus]

This is by far the best recording too. SO fresh sounding

[@jlcarrera9670]

What a beautiful and powerful music.

[@putraswarga608]

Wow!

[@juliencaron3264]

A pure marvel. Danke dafür Herr Gerubach.

[@nemianyamele2265]

YESS!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH GERUBACH!!! I HAD SUGGESTED THE MOTETS!!!!!! YOUR CHANNEL IS GOLD!!!!!

[@Scensum]

Wonderful! Thank you for your hard work Gerubach!

[@LaveMoj]

When soprans hit that octave at 15:03 it blow my mind

[@Nooticus]

It's surely one of the best moments in all of Bach, in fact all of music.

[@authenticmusic4815]

Thank you so much

[@22superkyle1]

Thank you so much for this

[@enzocypriani5055]

your videos are always extremely pleasing and useful, but this one is specially since the double chorus contrapunctual texture is very hard to grasp without the sheet music displayed as neatly as here thanks

[@TheOneAndOnlyZelenkaGuru]

12:59 Alleluja fugue

[@wiseacre666]

Is there a way to make the copy less blurry? I love this motet, and would like to be able to sing along but it's too out-of-focus. Thanks for all you do. A good dose of Bach can cure most ills...

[@Ivan_1791]

How can a human compose this? I don't understand.

[@Nooticus]

Absolutely my thoughts. Of everything that Bach wrote, his motets and especially this one, are just something else. Incomprehensible.

[@OlmoHerediaBlanco]

[@robfriedrich2822]

Why do you sing an old song instead?

It's such a disgrace that Bach had already passed away when Mozart mesmerized the world's musical scene. Bach could have learnt from Mozart how to orchestrate for a symphony for example. Or he could have learnt how to compose an opera, or how to make music more approachable for the other 98% of humans who were not the ruling nobility. Bach could have learnt many things from Mozart, as fugues are just a scrap in music. Unfortunately for Bach, he wasn't able to. Fortunately for the world, Mozart was born. And the unparalleled impact of his music allowed music itself to evolve, and therefore, for both God and the creation to reconcile. Bach's music is mathematically perfect. Mozart's music is musically perfect. They both are one another's counterbalance. Amen.

[@folderol8487]

Mozart had nothing to "teach" Bach. You could just as easily call the obsession with sonata form a "scrap in music". I love Mozart, but he might've taken Bach a little more to heart in composing his choral music, which to paraphrase Stravinsky was operatic Rococo sweets-of-sin compared to Bach's. In fact, Mozart learned orchestration from imitating the example of (among others) one Johann Christian Bach, son (and student) of one Johann Sebastian.

Some trolls should just be taken out back and shot...

[@martinraguz388]

Ricky Amez "Fugues are just scrap" this is only your opinion boy. Only yours.

[@ezequielstepanenko3229]

Obviously you are someone bored trying to call some attention. Comparing Mozart to Bach it's like comparing a solar system with an universe.

[@voxveritatis3815]

@@ezequielstepanenko3229 Not quite. It's just that Bach fanbois can't deal with the truth. Your arrogance and narrow-minded perspective prevents you from seeing the evident. Whereas Bach's mathematical approach is undeniable, so is his inclination to overuse the intricate, but cold and obvious predictability of a mathematical equation. A penchant which, seldom, turns tiresome and lacks freshness. Mozart, on the other hand, possesses the perfect balance between form and passion. Bach's music is mathematically perfect. Mozart's music is musically perfect. Nice try 😉
