Großartig. Tolle Tempi, klare Aussprache, beste Intonation. Einfach super.

[@raffitorossian6994]

Bach is the legend of all time. And definitely will remain the legend of all time. That's all. Thanks for uploading. Excellent chorus....,,,excellent soloists, plus, excellent conductor. Thanks for uploading.

[@johngtrotman]

A great Cantata, of course, with so many fine things - but what an astonishing little jewel there is in the bass recitative, beautifully sung here.

[@georgesmelki1]

Great music doesn't require hundreds of performers, and this cantata(and all other Bach cantatas for that matter) is ample proof!

[@adrianoseresi3525]

The reason that recitative is so good is because its as far away from a recitative (while still being an actual recitative) as possible!

[@MrEspressso2000]

Zusammen mit der Werkeinführung (Karl Graf) und der Aufführung ein schöner Aventsgottesdienst 2022! Danke!

[@jobstludwig6197]

Der Schlusschoral ist der absolute Hammer

[@evanofelipe]

An unforgettable performance by a fantastic choir, supported by an excellent orchestra in the magnificent baroque Swiss Kirche of Trogen. Loved it. √

[@karlgrafvonmoy2546]

Was auch immer die Bachstiftung zu Gehör bringt - immer sind es aufnametechnisch erstklassige, kraftvolle und brilliant vorgetragene Aufführungen. Da lernt Bach man noch mehr bewundern!

[@manubet100]

Am grossten meister werk von alle Art Kunst!!!! Vielen Dank Herren von Bachstiftung Grüsse aus Peru.

Gàcies per posar la meva traducció. Visca BACH!

[@AJH.1957]

Congratulations on the magnificent work, JS Bach's interpretations are very touching. The capture of the instruments is absolutely accurate.

[@odettefrancois6566]

Bach es el padre de la música, sus obras sublimes llegan al alma, saludos desde Chile🎼🎶

[@rainerotto7034]

Selten einen solch kultivierten Bass gehört. Chapeau.

[@hyazintheengelhardt9991]

Vom Bass hätte ich gerne mehr gehört. Wunderbare Stimme, gute Technik!

[@ItalianCenterWest]

Conductor Lutz is clearly showing by now that he is an emergent star, at the same level as Gardiner, Koopman, and Herreweghe. JSB from Heaven is evidently blessing him with abundant inspiration....

[@Nooticus]

Far above in my book! The education aspect is what the others don't have!

[@redbrian3655]

That is the best tempo ever for the last chorale... I loved it!

[@tartinitrumpet]

this cantata contains my favorite recitative ever.

[@1jesus2music3duke]

tartinitrumpet Christ knocking at the door? Utterly sublime from Herr Bach.

[@eduardogironas]

If it is: "See, I'm standing in front of the door and knock", yes! a powerful expression of humility

[@ozielich]

The bass recitative is exquisite!!!

[@mariod7473]

another amazing performance, thank you from Canada.

[@QuirkoTheBirko]

Ich nehme an, die Etsy Werbung zwischen den Sätzen mit Wiener Walzer drin ist der Preis dafür, dass ich nicht live irgendwo hingehe, um diese Musik zu erleben.

Gracias, una interpretación emotiva, clara y expresiva. Úrsula Werren

[@georgeswalwell6508]

Manel Walser, a name to remember. His electrifying bass recitative was so compelling I watched it twice in succession!

LOVED THE END FINALE SCHLUSS KORALSTUCK!!!!!!!!!!! lol What excellent choral singers... I cloudnt' have sung it... Bravi tutti.. Du auch Rudolf

Stupenda esecuzione bravissimi complimenti

[@AnaisIsAce]

Soprano and bass were excellent!!

[@brunocoliveira89]

Maria Christina Kiehr and Gerd Turk! 2 absolute masters of this repertoire! Their performance of Buxtehude with Scola Cantorum Basilensis is superb!

MANUEL WALSER ROCKS!!!!!!! Is a great Bass... NO!!!! HE IS WONDERFULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!! Fuck!!! Why there are not much interpretations of this guy in KZbin!!!!! BRAVO FOR ALL THE WORK!!!

[@andrewtannenbaum1]

Gotta love the pensive man in the front row with the maroon scarf. Brought out by his fellow member of the continuo section.

[@davidcallahan2832]

The clean, lean, and bright sound of this chorus becomes Bach's "instrumental" approach to vocal writing.

[@paulofaria8333]

WUNDERBAR!!!! (from Brazil)

[@jeff2446]

Excellent. All soloists were very good, although the bass was my favorite.

[@coertdejong4894]

Wunderbar!

[@Nacidodelmar]

Magnificat voices!

[@carolinegiroux8860]

9:22 deep bass voice, clearly soprano and W🎀w 14:14 for All of you

[@trivanspecialtyvehicles]

Wow, that was terrific! A fabulous production

[@BiancoSanGiovanni]

Hier wird zu 99 Prozent meine persönliche Idealvorstellung von Bach umgesetzt: Kleine, kammermusikalische Besetzung, und im Zweifel immer lieber etwas schneller als zu langsam. Den Schlusschor allerdings finde ich tatsächlich etwas sehr schnell. Wenn man für das Video die Geschwindigkeit 0.75 einstellt, passt es.

[@seanmarshall7529]

De gustibus non dispudandum est... schoen aber zu wissen..

This people in KZbin might have the decency of not inserting ads between movements!

[@claudewiwiamjertes2122]

Great...

[@edgeplay4205]

My guess Rudi was not happy with 1. The precision was not quite there enough for the Stokowski effects to bloom. The forte cutoffs were ragged, which blunted the overall effect.

[@joestephens7105]

Love this!!!

[@markwhitfield7609]

Wonder if they applauded after it was sung in its original setting of worship?

[@ash9475]

Agreed

[@mrcor01]

Fantastic, but the chorale is too fast

[@maximiliane777]

Gute Aufnahme. Auch wenn man bei Bach keinen Taktstock braucht .

[@dorphmusiker3715]

Sie brauchen auch bei Mahler keinen. Vielmehr ist es doch die persönliche Vorliebe des Dirigenten (den es nach ihrer Logik bei einer solchen Kantate in der Form wohl auch nicht geben sollte). Tut der Taktstock der musikalischen Qualität Abbruch?

[@Dilley_G45]

Bach und Mozart sollte im Fitnessstudio Laufen. Dann kann man sich die kopfhörer sparen

[@MartinSmithMFM]

Unbelievable

[@irisglucklich6721]

[@shnimmuc]

I feel thia work is not one haudred percent Bach

[@flippert0]

No, no, it is really is. But Bach based this cantata partially on the style of French composers, so this is that it may feel different.

[@Pricher1991]

10:21 mhhh... question to the audience: Is the first part of this aria in 4/4 or in 3/4?

[@pontuslundstrom5831]

It's in 3/4: www.bach-digital.de/rsc/viewer/BachDigitalSource_derivate_00000748/db_bachp0045_page053r.jpg

[@mikeq7134]

What an outrage, to interrupt sacred music repeatedly for commercials. How can any self-respecting musical group put up with it?

[@karlrovey]

At least it is between movements. There are some videos where they didn't care where they put the advertisements and wind up with the advertisements in the middle of a movement.

Exactly what I was thinking.

[@iv4nL]

BWV 849??

[@brunocoliveira89]

That rush on final movement was bit exagerated ㄱㄱ

[@frenchimp]

I found it fantastic.

[@durupi]

More than a bit.

[@gnsksj]

brunocoliveira89 No, it wasn't.

[@1jesus2music3duke]

Way too fast. Listen to Suzuki's rendition and come back here and tell me this isn't way too fast.

[@geiryvindeskeland7208]

After reviewing more than 3000 pages from Bach's cantatas, we see that some pieces get an Adagio, Largo, Allegro, etc. The final choral has time signature C, and there is no Allegro added. That's why I don't understand Lutz's fast tempo.

[@wohololao]

10:39 Well, by the look on her face I guess Kiehr didn't liked it hahaha

[@azriel8549]

+WhiteStratGuy. I saw it as well. I think she's complaining about the (too fast) tempo of her aria, who knows?

[@rjwusher]

This aria was at the very top of her range. In the beginning her voice cracked just ever so slightly. I think there was nothing wrong with her performance in the scope of the entire piece, but I guess it's hard for the performer herself to be an objective listener.

[@toccataforte]

Yikes the Amen , komm du... is just so fast. They can't sing or play it.

[@Hyacinthvs]

insgesamt eine tolle Aufnahme - aber leider ein schlechter Sopran mit viel zu viel "Hall"...

[@brunocoliveira89]

First!

[@1jesus2music3duke]

Is the final movement a joke? Let the music BREATHE! Why rush through all those glorious harmonic shifts on "verlangen"? I'm usually a big fan of these performances but that was shockingly bad.

[@rolfclaus625]

sehr schoen. aber warum muessen die instrumentalisten eigentlich so herumzappeln? steht das auch in den noten? historische auffuehrungspraxis, oder eher hysterische? besonders hervor tut sich die cellistin. man stelle sich die herren des 18. jh. mit ihren peruecken vor. die muessen ihnen doch dauern vom kopf gerutscht sein. Was haette wohl herr Harnocourt dazu gesagt...

Warum soll man denn bei Bach keinen Taktstock nehmen??? Das ist doch eine völlig sinnlose Aussage.
