No wonder some folk just play & sing JS BACH again & again.🙏

[@karstensturm4198]

My family and me come from the region where Bach was born & wrote his music. He even got to jail. I started as a boy of 8 years to sing in the chorus of Herrenhausen, Hanover. Then I played the trumpet & the church organ. Almost anybody played an instrument in my greater family. My father was from Jena, he played the clarinet, our mother from Eisenach, sometimes she was singing by herself. I grew up with the music of Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Mozart, Vivaldi & Tshaikovsky. I became a poet & an author. But sometimes after my public readings like in Nürnberg, I play Bach on the piano. The well tempered one...:-) It is a special kind of inner happiness.

[@susannestechow1009]

Hallo. Manches , was Sie schreiben, erinnert mich an früher. Ich bin zwar nicht aus Sachsen oder Thüringen, sondern aus dem Brandenburgischen, habe aber eine Weile in Leipzig gelebt, wo ich eine Geigen-Ausbildung bekommen habe, und dann lebte und arbeitete ich eine Weile an einem kleinen Theater in Zeitz in Sachsen-Anhalt als Orchester-Geigerin. Meine Schwester und meine Mutter sind bzw. waren beide Kirchenmusiker , und ich habe zu verschiedenen Zeiten auch Trompete in einem Posaunenchor gespielt. Leider habe ich arbeitsmäßig jetzt einen musikfremden Job (hat viel mit Logistik zu tun), ist aber o. K. Alles zusammen -Job, familiäre Arbeit (Familie wieder in Berlin und Brandenburg, wie ich selber inzwischen auch) ist schwierig zu schaffen, daher blase ich im Moment nicht, was sich aber wieder ändern kann, ich habe es noch nicht verlernt. Sehr nett. Herzliche Grüße aus Berlin.

[@karstensturm4198]

​@@susannestechow1009 Danke für Ihre freundliche Antwort. Eine spannende Verbindung, Geige & Trompete. Bei mir war es der Vater, der zwar gern Hausmusik wollte, aber keinen Sohn als Profi-Musiker. Ich denke, es hatte etwas mit der frühen Flucht 1953 aus der DDR zu tun, mit gewissen Gefühlen von Minderwertigkeit. Dabei mochte ich den leicht melodiösen Klang meiner Eltern sehr gern. Wenn mich später andere Menschen fragten, wie ich so viele Sprachen lesen & sprechen kann, sagte ich: Weil ich dreisprachig in Hamburg aufwuchs: hamburgisch, thüringisch & hochdeutsch. Denn auch Sprachen haben eine Musikalität in sich. Ich bin weit gereist Manchmal steht ein Klavier auf einem Bahnhof, etwa in Venedig, oder in einem Flughafen. Da spiele ich dann Bach, aus dem Wohltemperierten Klavier. Manchmal auch Schumann oder Beethoven´s "Für Elise". Im richtigen Leben habe ich es eher mit Büchern & Bildern zu tun. Wenn ich leicht betüdelt aus einer Bar zurück komme, hört man mich manchmal singen. Lassen Sie die Geige oder Trompete nicht zu lange warten. Wenn ich das sagen darf. ;-)

[@Christstuffer]

@@leonpiorek6269 Certainly it was (and continues to be) corruption. I wouldn't wait on a deity to expose anything -- the relative harmlessness of the virus, the suppression of effective treatment for those who are vulnerable, and the harmful effects of lockdowns, facemasks, and depriving children of their right to an education have all been readily apparent from the beginning. People will have to call for these criminals to be prosecuted.

[@pedrodiezcansecomunoz9676]

No soy creyente, pero sí «cristiano (o católico) cultural». Bach, en la línea de Lutero, se cobijaba en la poderosa fortaleza que era su Dios. En estos tiempos de licuefacción y desconcierto (nunca mejor dicho), quienes amamos la música podemos hacer de Johann Sebastian Bach un baluarte en el que repostar fuerzas y continuar dando batalla en este mundo, tanto da si es o no el único. ¡Saludos, compatriota!

[@JohnRDallasJr]

Truly exceptional blending of voice and other instruments, all. The audio editing is among the best in this series. During transitions, the subtle smoothness of muffled recorded sound is a credit to the audio engineers. As the sounds of preceding mastery lingered during short breaks, the near silence was hardly silent. At the end, did the maestro whisper, "Wow?" I did. Thank you.

I am hesitant to comment because I don't have anything significant to add to the already great comments of this definitive video. These must be dream jobs for musicians, sound engineers, and others involved. Thank you so much for this! As I'm writing this, the chorus "Wohl mir, daß ich Jesum habe" is beginning. We played (or attempted to play) this in my high school band years ago. (I'm 70 now). I knew this as "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring", which is "Jesus bleibet meine Freude" at the end of this cantata. (I had to look up this information as, unfortunately, I don't know German.) Even though we are blessed to be able to access these recordings via internet, I still hope to travel to Switzerland, Germany, Holland, etc. to hear this music.

[@grantyoungblood7895]

If by "a hoot" you mean scary of aspect and thin of voice, sure. The soprano pretty much blew everyone else away. I agree with you about the oboes... Da caccia and d'amore were all beautifully played... As was the principal violin.

[@teruoimai668]

bach. siloti

[@paulgulda1]

You are so right about that bass! Great diction and expression rather than „vocal artistry“. And pitch perfect, to boot! (Rhymes with hoot...!)😉

[@rjwusher]

'That bass', his name is Wolf Matthias Friedrich, I can assure you, is a very skilled singer. I have a bass voice myself and could only dream of singing like that. Friedrich's background is in opera, i.e. very expressive, and I have noticed he appears in the Bachstiftung cantata performances when a some extra power and theatricality is required. That being said, all the solo singers in these performances are very skilled, and it is a rather fatuous thing to say that the soprano, Hana Blažíková is her name, 'blew everyone else away'. Soprano and tenor voices on the surface always sound more versatile and exciting than alto or bass, however if you listen keenly there are many beautiful things to be heard. Bach never neglected these voices in his compositions! Quite the contrary.

In order to love this work, you should also sing it with the chorus. Here is the text. That's what I do. I wait until my wife is not home and then belt it out at full volume. I always cry when I do this. I don't know how the performers avoid that. I never have been able to. Don't worry about the accent. You can listen to Voces 8 and get an idea how to pronounce it. Their accent is perfect German. 28.04 Words: Martin Jahn (c.1620-82) Jesus bleibet meine Freude, Meines Herzens Trost und Saft, Jesus wehret allem Leide, Er ist meines Lebens Kraft, Meiner Augen Lust und Sonne, Meiner Seele Schatz und Wonne; Darum laß ich Jesum nicht Aus dem Herzen und Gesicht.
