Richard Atkinson analyzes the dizzyingly complex counterpoint in the opening chorus of J. S. Bach's BWV 80 cantata, "Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott". This is a fair use educational commentary that uses excerpts from a recording by La Chapelle Royale and Collegium Vocale, directed by Philippe Herreweghe. The excerpt from Handel's "Messiah" is from a recording by Bach Collegium Japan.
