The soprano did beautifully on a difficult aria and the violoncello was absolutely tasteful in its artistry. What an honor that such a good recording has been made and anyone can access it in their own home! Even Bach himself didn't get to hear many of his pieces live. Thank you so much for uploading!!

I was curious where the picture came from. It's a stained glass window in the St Thomas church: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomaskirche_(Leipzig)

Jesu, nun sei gepreiset Zu diesem neuen Jahr Für dein Güt, uns beweiset In aller Not und G'fahr, Dass wir haben erlebet Die neu fröhliche Zeit, Die voller Gnaden schwebet Und ewger Seligkeit; Dass wir in guter Stille Das alt Jahr habn erfüllet. Wir wolln uns dir ergeben Itzund und immerdar, Behüte Leib, Seel und Leben Hinfort durchs ganze Jahr! Gesù, ora ti glorifichiamo in questo nuovo anno per la bontà che ci dimostri soccorrendoci in ogni bisogno e pericolo, perché ci fai essere testimoni di questo nuovo tempo di gioia, ricolmandoci di grazia e di felicità eterna; e per aver fatto serenamente concludere il vecchio anno. Noi ci rimettiamo a te, adesso e sempre, proteggi i nostri corpi, le nostre anime, le nostre vite, durante questo anno!

Welcome and blessings to everyone else who isn't in the Lord Jesus Christ fan club. 2015

[@ifyouloveChristyouwillobeyhim]

Anyone who does not love Christ is not blessed, but rather cursed. May we pray first of all this blessing on unbelievers: that they recieve salvation by grace through faith from Jesus Christ.

I could not find the meaning of "gepreiset". What does the title mean?

[@TomPls]

I believe it would be "praised"

[@keithjones5700]

Title means 'Let Jesus now be praised' - preisen (verb) = praise

[@1ShadowInTheDark]

actually, real german would be "gepriesen"

[@TomPls]

1ShadowInTheDark I assume there might be some difference between German grammar in the Bach-era german and modern german.

[@jaikee9477]

"Gepreiset" actually is real German, spoken 300 years ago, and I would argue that we spoke much more eloquently back then.
