For those who wonder at the organist looking intently at the music and never at the keys, my aunt, who taught me piano used to say, "Look at the music. The keys don't move."
100% agree. If I start looking at my hands while playing, it just makes for confusion. If one has been doing it long enough and knows the music, the hands will go where they need to, on their own.

American conductors I work with don't get what it takes to work with a keyboard/console that can be awkwardly placed so that there is little or no constant contact between organist a d conductor. And so they dismiss both organist and organ as crazy+incompetent. In all other things these highly trained conductors know just what to do. But with the organ: suddenly ignorance! A very fine conductor with a D.M. in my city once condescendingly found a second conductor who had to watch him the main conductor from the organ loft..stand over the very able organist like Victorian scold, and duplicate the main conductor's every move. Teach that rebellious boy a lesson once and for all. Only in America, right?
Nichts ist für mich so erhebend wie eine Bach-Kantate. Diese Darbietung von BWV 29 erfüllt alle meine Wünsche. Die Geigen-Begleitung der ersten Arie ist ganz wunderbar; das Instrument ein besonderer Schatz, a beauty! Die Stimmen der begabten Sänger sind eine große Freude. Eine erhebende beglückende Aufführung! Vielen herzlichen Dank an alle, die dazu beigetragen haben!
Never heard this before until I was walking in the hall of my university in 1968 as an undergraduate. I stopped dead track, transfixed and tears came down from my eyes!!!!
@@roberttelarket4934 Nice story! My aunt let me and my brothers copy a variety album that included this and the finale from Beethoven’s ninth and Glenn Gould playing the prelude and fugue in c# minor from WTC book I.
What's also amazing is that the opening Sinfonia in this cantata was an arrangement of the Prelude of the solo violin Partita in E-major. Bach had all of those harmonies in his head when he wrote the solo violin work.
The sheer beauty and glory of this cantata is brought to such glory in this performance. Never have I heard the opening Sinfonia so vibrant and triumphant and the Wir danken Dir so resonant and full-bodied. The polyphony here is so rich, it stirs you to cry. The clear sense of direction in the first aria Halleluja, Stärk und Macht is such a revel to watch. And he absolutely kills those trills! The quartet's intimate and virtuosic sound is so delightful to hear. And then the Gedenk an uns is just unfathomable in its beauty. The sonorous sounds of the strings and the Siciliano rhythm supports the entire piece as the stunning voice of Maria Keohane, the soprano, sings on top. There's a very striking and sincere beauty to this performance of the aria; it paints a very human sound. I cannot thank the Netherlands Bach Society more. I've listened to this performance for months on repeat. But then the solo work they they put out like Bach's Cello Suite No. 2 also reveals such an intimate and personal sound, each artist being able to bring Bach to life so vividly and with such virtuosity and skill; it arrests you. And to top it all off, it's all presented in pure HD.... I mean come on😩
@@thomasakerberg6765 Thank you for your response........this rendition is as you say truly wonderful , I was very much taken by it. More wonderful things , as you probably have altready enjoyed, is the performance of cantate 140 ! same mix of intruments and voices
@@fritsboer4315 Mr Boer, thank you for your response to my response (I´m not Canadian, Swede here). Talking about cantatas, I have a profound relationship with BWV 4!
As others have said, much better than I can, the Netherlands Bach Society is opening new avenues of honest expression and appreciation with their recordings of JS Bach. I am indeed grateful for the TH-cam uploads. Among other things it keeps my soul refreshed in these troubled times. With grateful thanks.
Bach, "The 5th Evangelist", blessed us with this sublime musical tribute to God! What a profound piece to inspire faith, compel gratitude, produce humility, and exalt the Lord. Humanity in its corrupt state needs these reminders and pointers to the perfect Word, the Revelation of Christ in Scripture as our full sufficiency for Salvation, Faith, Hope, Peace, and Love. Thank you for a superb performance! Unrivaled, in my opinion!
Amen, and Amen!! From a Mormon brother *in Christum.* We know from whence help cometh after this perfect deliverable, brought to us by the skill, hard work and absolute respect of a precious score that no money can buy. And brought to us by the very best of "technology." The filming is worthy of Bergman in his take on Mozart's Magic Flute! And our Swedish soprano? Words fail. On this "Monday Monday" in October 2020, with all its "change and decay all around I see," ... yes, today *ich bin ein Lutheraner und ein Europäer" loud and proud. Thank you, Netherlands Bach Society. Ordinary people doing extraordinary thinks. Ganz im Sinne Bachs btw! Mark, from Arizona, USA
And wouldn't it be wonderful if there really were a God to enjoy this magnificent tribute. But then, there is a God, and His name is Johann Sebastian Bach!
@@princeandrey All a guy could ask for! (Who cares where good will comes from? Not I. Not you. Not Bach. Not Descartes. Not Hesisenberg. Certainly not "the only Christian, and he died on the cross." (Nietzsche)
Questa cantata risolleva lo Spirito . Non mi stanco mai di riascoltarla. Grazie Bach Netherland's Society . Ma soprattutto Grazie al grande Johann Sebastian Bach ❤ ❤ ❤ 👑🎼🎶🎻❤
Shortly before his death in 1750, Mr. Bach said that he would soon be going to heaven from where the inspiration for his music has come. When you listen to this, there can be no doubt that this is so!
Probably he would have been addressed as Herr Bach, note from the St John Passion 'Herr, unser Herrscher' ... a silly quibble, as I agree with your comment. But Herr Bach he remains for me.
Such amazing musicians, all of them. This performance was played at the Martinikerk in Groningen, my maternal grandfather was born in that city and was christened in that church. I thank the Netherlands Bach Society and it’s wonderful musicians for keeping Bach’s compositions alive and share them to the world!
Cette cantate lumineuse et inspirée pourrait constituer un concentré de la galaxie Bach ! Magnifique interprétation de la Netherlands toujours au sommet du talent ! On ne se lasse pas de les écouter... A chaque œuvre on les applaudit !
I think the greatness of Bach’s music is that he is a genius who composed for himself. I can’t imagine that the original audience for his works had a capacity to fully appreciate the glorious sounds they were hearing.
We're very much in danger of exhausting superlatives - thanks, once again. An excellent performance, and Ms Keohane's singing of one of Bach's loveliest arias is wonderful. Hat tip to the oboist as well.
You echoed my sentiments perfectly Tim ! I too frequently return to this marvelous work and stunning performance , a real delight for the senses and a balm for the soul in these troubled times ! Stay safe!..
Her voice is so beautiful, it is timeless. No gray hair can detract from the absolute timelessness and beauty of the work and the absolute beauty of the voice.
Honestly, I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to this presentation of cantata BWV 29; there are just so many incredible moments, beautifully presented by NBS. I would love to have been in church when this was first presented to have a comparative... keep up the great work!
Mere words cannot describe the perfection of the BNS. Pe. Their glorious performances are a Godsend .For all lovers of Bach, ///////THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
Every now and again one comes across such an absolute gem of a musical performance, such as this! It moves one to tears of joy and awe! The photography is fabulous; the performance of all magnificent, and the whole is just Godly perfection! Bach himself surely smile. The Netherlands Bach Society are such a magnificent grouping!
If we could watch the creation of the universe in 4 minutes, the opening movement would be the perfect sound track. Strength, might, suspense, drama, and glory. Supreme beauty. Bach was, indeed, a God-sent genius.

L'une des plus belles cantates de J.S. Bach sur le Psaume 75.Nous te remercions,Dieu,nous te remercions ou Nous te rendons grâce,Dieu, nous te rendons grâce, selon certaine version de la Bible...
When you see the audience many of them are old adults, but, I don`t know why when I was very young I was fortunate to hear for the very first time the Toccata BWV 540 in F Major and something happened to me and my brain, and since then Bach is in my head, no other composer, (for my taste and comprehension) is close to him, and I think that all composers after him thinks that he`s the best and forever will be.
As a composer I listen to Bach the most - he inspired many other great composers after him, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Brahms just to name a few. The more I study, lesten and play Bach the more I find out His genius and his love and devotion to God.
Miraculous. There aren't words. It'd be heartbreaking if Bach himself never got to hear it like this, and that's entirely possible. His choral and orchestral forces in Leipzig were usually severely limited, both in number and in quality. (Neither lack was his fault--the Thomasschule admitted too many boys as "music scholars" who had no discernable musical ability at all.) . A previous commenter on this series said it was tempting to see all time not spent listening to Bach as wasted time. And, y'know, i understand that, I really do.
Really appreciate it It's just like Karl Richter Listen also to my own klaszieke muzeziek on TH-cam "wernerwin von beetdoven" bvb michiel 3 8 10 13 22 28 Dirk 4.5.10 15 Su 1 tot en met 26 Es ist voll ach Ode aan 26.goede goddelijke Arabieren take 5 Alfons 13 tot 15 en 41 tot 49 Aan Johanna Sebastian Bach HOOGBACHTING Het leven is een kwade droom Bach is the HIMalaya Bach est l'or and the Master Bach is pain that becomes joy and joy that becomes pain and both at the same time
Comme la personne précédente également ,j'ai écouté vos enregistrement des cantates de Bach "en boucle" mais certainement y a -t-il une différence d'état d'esprit ...j'y ai trouvé le soutien, la profondeur, l'Espérance, la générosité, le réconfort dès le jour du décès de mon époux bien aimé ,il y a maintenant 4 mois, chaque jour et jusqu'à présent . Merci JS Bach , merci l'ensemble de la Société Bach des Pays-Bas !
Once again a superb rendition by the Netherlands Bach Society. As usual, van Veldhoven conducts with perfect control and feeling. This is a solemn, bright cantata with echoes from the B minor Mass. The BWV number is only 29 but I feel this should be a much later, more mature work by Bach. Wir danken dir.
Jorge Urzua Urzua The BWV numbers are not in chronological order, so being 29 out out of 200 doesn't imply that this is an early cantata. In fact this was likely written in 1731 well after Bach had completed all his annual cantata cycles.
Die Mächtigen dieser Welt arbeiten genau am Gegenteil. Alles, was wahre Kunst ist, wird diffamiert und mit Dreck beworfen. Um so wichtiger ist es, dass es Orchester dieser Qualität gibt, um das in Erinnerung zu rufen, was die Menschheit an großen Dingen hervorgebracht hat.
Sim. É um prazer acrescido ouvir este tipo de sublimes vozes, com tanto poder de entoação natural, inato. Há muita voz famosa que não tem qualquer capacidade de entoação... Ouve-se gritaria, e o público, assim como os críticos, aplaudem... A arte da Maria Kehohane é apaziguante.
Listening to Bach's works is a spiritual journey for me. This wonderful performance brought me to tears by its close. Thank you SO much NBS for bringing this for all to rejoice in.
Heavenly!! Love the complexity, richness, harmonious and glorious music of this cantata! Especially the sinfonia which is a transcription of BWV 1006 Preludio. Thank you NBS for a wonderful performance!!!
I have a problem with religion. But i fell so "blessed" to enjoy this sacred music. I know atheiests in college chorals who cant wait to perform this music and love to perform this music and they know there is nothing else like it.
Found this channel yesterday, so glad I did so, such wonderful interpretations and particularly handy now that I'm reading "Music in the Castle of Heaven".
This summer I played the opening of this heavenly music with a Sony boombox tied to the back of my ebike while riding on the boardwalk of Jonas Beach the biggest beach in NewYork City's suburb, everyone first turn their head then smile, lot of praises too

So, is Leo playing in C major in order to match the chamber instruments in D major at A=415? (I'm guessing the organ is pitched a tone higher?).
@@miguelfernandes2760 sdm
@@peterwatchorn5618 I figure Leo is playing in D major. It's just all the instruments are tuned to Hz=465 to match the organ
"Wir danken dir, Gott", also known as the music for the second Kyrie and the Dona Nobis Pacem in the b minor Mass.

As a child, we woke up, on every Sunday morning, with this magnificent cantata by my father, a Lutheran pastor.

When you see the audience many of them are old adults, but, I don`t know why when I was very young I was fortunate to hear for the very first time the Toccata BWV 540 in F Major and something happened to me and my brain, and since then Bach is in my head, no other composer, (for my taste and comprehension) is close to him, and I think that all composers after him thinks that he`s the best and forever will be.
That Toccata is among the wildest shit Bach every composed. Such an awesome piece
Same here, I went on my own to monthly organ concerto's in my home town Dordrecht when I was 13. Bachs fuga's where heaven...
As a composer I listen to Bach the most - he inspired many other great composers after him, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Brahms just to name a few. The more I study, lesten and play Bach the more I find out His genius and his love and devotion to God.
Gedenk an uns by Maria Keohana brought tears in my eyes and chapeau for the hoboplayer.
Miraculous. There aren't words. It'd be heartbreaking if Bach himself never got to hear it like this, and that's entirely possible. His choral and orchestral forces in Leipzig were usually severely limited, both in number and in quality. (Neither lack was his fault--the Thomasschule admitted too many boys as "music scholars" who had no discernable musical ability at all.)

A previous commenter on this series said it was tempting to see all time not spent listening to Bach as wasted time. And, y'know,
i understand that, I really do.
Even without proper players , he still knew how it sounded perfectly in his mind. Probably sounded like this🙂
Really appreciate it
It's just like Karl Richter

HOOGBACHTING
Het leven is een kwade droom
Bach is the HIMalaya
Bach est l'or and the Master
Bach is pain that becomes joy and joy that becomes pain and both at the same time
Superb. I feel so much calmer after listening.
Bellissima musica. Grande interpretazione. Grazie di cuore per la grande emozione
Comme la personne précédente également ,j'ai écouté vos enregistrement des cantates de Bach "en boucle" mais certainement y a -t-il une différence d'état d'esprit ...j'y ai trouvé le soutien, la profondeur, l'Espérance, la générosité, le réconfort dès le jour du décès de mon époux bien aimé ,il y a maintenant 4 mois, chaque jour et jusqu'à présent . Merci JS Bach , merci l'ensemble de la Société Bach des Pays-Bas !
My Bach's favorite cantata!
Simply wonderful performance of this great piece!! Bravo!
Subliem !!! Dank u zeer !!! 👏👏👏👏👏💐
Excellent interpretation, thank you so much for sharing it with us
Those sequences in the organ just break my heart. GORGEOUS playing!!
Words fail me. What is there to say. The music does it all !
I agree Jan, both a joy for the senses, and a real balm for the soul in these troubled times....Stay safe !
Hats off to the Netherlands Bach Society.
Brilliant .... thank God for TH-cam. Subscribed
Rigtig velklingende musik og flot solosang . Dejlig at lytte til.......
Once again a superb rendition by the Netherlands Bach Society. As usual, van Veldhoven conducts with perfect control and feeling. This is a solemn, bright cantata with echoes from the B minor Mass. The BWV number is only 29 but I feel this should be a much later, more mature work by Bach. Wir danken dir.
Jorge Urzua Urzua The BWV numbers are not in chronological order, so being 29 out out of 200 doesn't imply that this is an early cantata. In fact this was likely written in 1731 well after Bach had completed all his annual cantata cycles.
There are really no words
Brilliant, joyous, energetic sinfonia...Another example of the mastery of this titan....Bach.
Interprétation magnifique !!
Bach's birth must be the most miraculous ever in mankind. All human beings should feel obliged to make civilization endure so that it is not lost.
Die Mächtigen dieser Welt arbeiten genau am Gegenteil. Alles, was wahre Kunst ist, wird diffamiert und mit Dreck beworfen. Um so wichtiger ist es, dass es Orchester dieser Qualität gibt, um das in Erinnerung zu rufen, was die Menschheit an großen Dingen hervorgebracht hat.
Toco el cielo, escuchando a Bach, algo tan sublime y hermoso.
Wir danken dir Gott
Ich liebe Bach.
Gantata is glorious and beautiful..elaborate !
Ouvir Maria Keohane é escutar o cântico dos Anjos.
Sim. É um prazer acrescido ouvir este tipo de sublimes vozes, com tanto poder de entoação natural, inato. Há muita voz famosa que não tem qualquer capacidade de entoação... Ouve-se gritaria, e o público, assim como os críticos, aplaudem...
A arte da Maria Kehohane é apaziguante.
Listening to Bach's works is a spiritual journey for me. This wonderful performance brought me to tears by its close. Thank you SO much NBS for bringing this for all to rejoice in.
Classic final note of the Sinfonia from Mr. Vanryne ... and lovely playing all the way around. Thanks for brightening my day.
Ik vind het mooi dat een cantate van JS Bach met hoofdorgel wordt gespeeld!
Maravillosa Cantata con esa sinfonía a cargo del órgano y demás instrumentos, que sólo BACH pudo componer
Heavenly!! Love the complexity, richness, harmonious and glorious music of this cantata! Especially the sinfonia which is a transcription of BWV 1006 Preludio.
Thank you NBS for a wonderful performance!!!
I have a problem with religion. But i fell so "blessed" to enjoy this sacred music. I know atheiests in college chorals who cant wait to perform this music and love to perform this music and they know there is nothing else like it.
Magnificent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fantastica interpretazione di un capolavoro musicale
Tout simplement fabuleux..!!🙏🙏👍
I am obsessed with this piece. It is glorious. SDG
Listening to Bach does not get better than this ! Exceptional from start to finish. I look forward to listening to this again.
Found this channel yesterday, so glad I did so, such wonderful interpretations and particularly handy now that I'm reading "Music in the Castle of Heaven".
Sublime ❤ Puissant ❤ Divin ❤
Merci pour le partage 🙏🙏🙏
This summer I played the opening of this heavenly music with a Sony boombox tied to the back of my ebike while riding on the boardwalk of Jonas Beach the biggest beach in NewYork City's suburb, everyone first turn their head then smile, lot of praises too
