Eines der schönsten Lieder die es gibt. Mit einer wunderbaren Aussage. So Wunderschön gesungen🤍🙏
Gänsehaut.
J. S. Bach, ein Genie im Barock!
Diese scheinbar schlichte Melodie rührt mich immer wieder zu Tränen!!
First of all, i have to stop crying. It´s so fantastic.
@Katherine Lazar it's probably my most beautiful melody! Awesome! So moving!
Brings me to tears every time I hear it!
Thank you!❤
Jesus, Du hast Dich mir offenbart und Dich in mein Herz eingebrannt. Du bist alles, wonach ich Verlangen habe! Du bist der HErr und das Ziel meines Lebens! Du allein stillst alle Sehnsucht in mir und in Dir allein bin ich vollkommen glücklich und erfüllt. Ja, Dein Feuer verzehrt mich ganz, bis ich bei Dir bin!Amen.
So schön deine Worte 🤍
He knew me from before I was born and He died that way for me, anyway. He loves me that much. He knew every sin I would ever commit. When His Father looks at me; He sees Him and not me. My sins are as far from me as West is from East. He will never leave me, even to the end of the age.
Praise the Lord!
How beautiful
💙
I am not a religious person, but this music is 'heavenly'. I am deeply moved by it.
BACH hat einfach göttliche Musik geschrieben! Sie geht mir durch und durch!
@@ernstdombrowski8618 So geht es mir auch immer wieder wenn ich Bach höre, wünsche einen gesegneten Karfreitag! 🙏
@@ernstdombrowski8618 Wenn die Menschen sich von Gott inspirieren lassen, bringen sie ein Stückchen Himmel auf Erden. Bach - obwohl er bereits in einem protestantischen Umfeld geboren wurde - war ein sehr gläubiger Mensch, und kannte noch die Gnade an Gott zu vertrauen und sich von ihm inspirieren zu lassen, eine Gnade dass danach langsam verfälscht und im Laufe des XX Jahrh. ganz verschwunden ist. Deswegen wird nichts schönes mehr erschaffen, im gegenteil, alles Schöne wird noch zerstört.
@@tatjanakomatowsky5251 Danke. Hab den Tag in Ruhe und Nichtstun verbracht. Schöne Ostertage!
You don't have to be religious to appreciate the Sacred Head that was Wounded for our transgressions.
Our "modern" ears tend to think this is a sad chorale. In fact it reflects the deeply loving and caring hand of our lord Jesus on our shoulder. Even on the cross our omnipotent Lord was fully in charge of everything. Don't think of "poor Jesus having to suffer for our sins".
Don't cry for Jesus, rather cry over your sins and embrace this most precious gift.
May our Lord bless you and happy good friday from Germany.
Loving and sadness are not contradictory. Gospel is both a love story and a sad story.
This is so well put💐
people of the renaissance didn't have an emotional palette alien to ours. OF COURSE this tune is sad, AND loving at the same time. Since when are those incompatible ?
But don't minimize either please, what all this meant for Jesus, the spotless, eternal Son of God who was made .... sin for us
O Sacred Head is such a beautiful German song. God bless you.
That vocal quiver at 4:08 gives me the most bittersweet of feels. Not to mention 5:08 was probably the best 4th to 3rd resolution I’ve ever heard.
Yeah, 5:08 was great.
As a Baptist, and a very traditional one, I love these old hymns, even when they are in a foreign language. I especially love it combining a hymn and classical music. The best of both worlds.
If you want your mind blown, having heard these, now look up "Nun seid ihr wohl gerochen", the final chorale from six days of Christmas oratorios. It's so festive and Christmas-y with trumpets and timpani, and then the choir sings this Good Friday melody. It's really brilliant, both musically and liturgically
try the Latin Mass
The English version is also available
Jeden Abend bevor ich schlafen gehe höre ich dieses schöne Lied. Es ist ein Gedenken an das Leiden und Sterben unseres Herrn.
Danke dafür und Gott segne Sie.
Einen gesegneten Karfreitag wünsche ich. 🙏

Difficult to fathom that Bach was relatively obscure for more than half a century following his death. What a genius was this master! How exquisite so many of his melodies, and this one is no exception.
It was an era without recording equipment and printing was a manually taxing endeavor. Because of that music wasn't really a permanent thing and not conducive to immortality. To the best of my knowledge Bach was during his lifetime by the standards of his time but society just wasn't set up to preserve his work.
This tune is actually older - Hans Leo Hassler ( 1500s) "Mein Gmut ist mir vervirret" ( My mood is confused ) - and slightly changed by Paul Gerhardt (1600s) into the hymn "Oh, Haupt voll Blut und Wunden" ( Oh, head full of blood and wounds ), which Bach would then adapt for this masterpiece.
Later on this wonderful tune would reappear as "Because All Men are Brothers" ( Pete Seeger & Peter, Paul and Mary ) and in Paul Simon's beautiful "American Tune".
@Bjowolf2 Wow. Great piece of previously-unknown history. Really appreciate your sharing this❤️
This melody is not by Bach. Many of his chorales he stole it from Luther, who stole them from the nearest pub. "Why should the devil have the best tunes"?
Here is the Hassler version mentioned above th-cam.com/video/zoBPaSNr9QU/w-d-xo.html

Eine fery great melodie frum ze famöus Jurman zong vriting collective ov Hassler, Gerhardt, Bach und Simon - iv only zhey had vritten more zongs togezzerr 😂
Wunderschön....nichts gibt die Stimmung zu Karfreitag so wieder wie Bachs " Oh Haupt voll Blut und Wunden "
Maybe only S.Barber's "Addagio for strings" 🤔🤷♂️ not a "goodfriday" composition tho.. 🤔🙄
La finesse de jeu, l'élégance, le touché, ... c'est trop beau.
Thank you for this, and thanks also to Philippe Herreweghe, for putting the four together like this, with the abrupt switches in tonal centers, contrasting settings, everything!
All versions are splendid. The final setting (3:57 to the end) is sublime. What Bach does in 4:35-4:47 is staggering.
That passing chord right at 4:35 was almost jazzy 😂 But staggering indeed...I heard a choir do this harmonizarion for the first time just a few hours ago while I was driving home...I almost jumped out of seat!!! Had no idea Bach had done that! (I've never listened to the entire St. Matthew's Passion!)
Staggering is the right word. It's the most personal text and the most mind-blowing harmony.
Same - I felt this viscerally the first time I heard this last setting.
Magnífico, !!!!!!! Toca a alma profundamente!!!! Parabéns ao Coro e ao Maestro . Bravo!!!!🙌🙌🙌🙌. Gratidão!!!!!!
The sorrow, the joy, the comfort, the peace!
Such a pleasure to hear such a WONDERFUL rendition 😀🎼
Wunderschön nichts gibt die Stimmung zo Karfreitag so wieder wie ""Bach ""
!Amen
Paul Simon borrowed this from Bach for American Tune (1975)
Bach borrowed it from Paul Gerhardt (1607 - 1676)
Gerhardt borrowed it from Hans Hassler (1564 - 1612).
Paul Simon's song American Tune is actually a 400 year old German tune. Like those who arrived on the Mayflower, the melody came from Germany and became an American Tune.
Yes! th-cam.com/video/0OEWBq_jzuA/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for making this compilation video of the chorales; I love this melody (and the final one is the best)
Simply almost beyond words.
Im transcended to another
Realm.
So staggeringly moving..
Wow...nuffsed!
So Blessed to have found this. My Thanks to whomever put this together
This Chorale is magnific. Thanks Sir BACH for wondefull music.
As a chorister I stand in awe of these people. The conductor is Philippe Herreweghe,it does not get any better than that in choral music. Thank you so much for posting this, it will inspire me every time I listen.
Yes. :)
The director does an incredible job, I always thought this was a really difficult song to sing, he has them singing so well together and keeps the proper tempo perfectly. A truly amazing job.
KIRSTEIN
very true
I haven't heard this in German since I was very young. What a beautiful recording.
Es ist das. Schönste unter all den schönen Melodien bachs....nie fühle ich mich Gott näher...🎉
The depth of passion slowly surely takes over the heart!
What a wonderful idea to combine all in this video. The Sacredness is beyond human words
Beautiful voices 💗
Essa é para mim um marco na hinódia luterana e do tempo de Quaresma. Maravilhoso! Tempo de reflexão e de fé na grandiosa obra do nosso Senhor e Salvador Jesus Cristo. Muito obrigado!
Each setting is beautiful as always
Just beautiful 🌟
Esecuzione fantastica coro meraviglioso.
Beautiful harmony, love the minor chords
Coral maravilhoso! Bach is passion!
The final harmonic progressions are otherworldly.
Ineffably Glorious! Incomparably Beautiful! Devotional Masterpiece!!!One can only Bow in Adoring Wonder!!!V. W.
Very well worded!!
Insanely gorgeous and musical! Music simply doesn't get any more beautiful than this. Hans Leo Hassler - amazing. Probably the prettiest song ever written.
Sorry....but is "prettiest" REALLY a suitable word to use...)
...hermosa armonia hermosa canción hermosas voces...
🕊🌟🕊
This is
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
🙏💜🙏

I like Bach, very beautiful
Beyond lovely.
this is absolutely fantastic!
Magnifique !!!!!
MASTERPIECE !! - nothing other to say
Qué hermoso. Estudiando el tema para cantarlo en nuestro coro.
My eyes are full of tears...so beautiful and emotional.
Simply...wow. I love it.😎

Transported, every time I hear this ❤️
although i'm listening to this because of music class, i love how peaceful this is. you can tell their vocals are well-trained
Paul Simon - American Tune
That's what brought me here. He used this beautiful melody for his song (which has now become an earworm)
+Tyler King -- Peter, Paul, and Mary beat him to it. TImeless melody!
Wunderschön!
A MOST REVERENT OFFERTORY!!! PRAISE DIVINE ;VOICES SUBLIME!!! MAY OUR HEARTS REJOICE , O LORD MOST HIGH!!!V.W.
got the chills!!
loved to sing it. it's an amazing piece.
Gorgeous
The last one is pure magic.
Maravilhoso!
I used to sing in our church choir and knew all the hymns by heart, and learned these German words which I would sing when everyone else was singing in English! 🤭
Precisamos diariamente refletir, lembrar e reconhecer que foi o nosso pecado que pôs Cristo na cruz, e foi por amor a nós que Ele sofreu...
Maravilhoso. Obrigado.
absolute perfection
Qta beleza. Qta harmonia e doçura; embora estejam cantando sobre o sofrimento de Jesus.😭😭
I could possibly become a Lutheran after hearing Bach’s music!
Thanks so much for this video! I'm studying Matthew Passion for A level music so this is really useful!
I did A level music twenty years ago and we mostly study Cats by Andrew Lloyd Webber, so you're lucky ;)

They sound like angels.
Piekny choral który śpiewałam z chórem w kościele Pokoju w Swidnicy.Bylo pięknie i uroczyście
Harmonic heaven!
molto bello
A great meisterstuck.
Castelo forte é nosso Deus, refúgio e fortaleza.
For me as living in a culture historically strongly influenced by Lutheranism, these chorales ultimately represent the sacred music of our cultural tradition, here divinely harmonized and set by Bach in his cantatas and passions, in the same way the even older tradition of Orthodox sacred music has influenced the Russian culture. The difference is, as the Orthodox liturgical music tradition is well alive and respected today among Orthodox Christians - though our hymns still are found in our hymnals and, I guess, will not be totally forgotten in near future - the Lutheran hymns are nowadays neglected as old-fashioned and "dull" and replaced with gospel or other popular tunes, which bear nothing of the spiritual depth of the old hymns and, maybe even more, their texts.
I'm not even a Christian but I love this music. I think Bach once stated he wrote all his music in order to honor God, and you can hear that.
Bach approved Luther. The Catholic church has had numerous composers, but God has chosen to give incredible talent to protestants like Handel and Bach.
As an American Lutheran (member of ELCA) my congregation still sings many of the old German hymns such as this and hymns from sources such as Geistliche Kirchengesange, Koln, 1623, but there seems to be a movement towards replacing these with modern hymns from places such as Latin America and Africa in an attempt to encourage diversity and shed our image as a northern European church. I personally find this to be a very unfortunate trend. I agree, at least to an extent, with Marshall McLuhan's sentiment that "the medium is the message." For me, hymns with simple, repetitive texts accompanied by music that sounds like it was written for a mariachi band seem out of place in the context of Lutheran worship.
I agree 100% with your diagnose. We need to open good taste and deep passions by such holy music. But barbarian like to dulling the mass and neglect such summits of our great masters.
@@marcelloloto I wish to bring this music to the congregation I play the organ for, yet they still prefer the much less meaningful modern hymns. (SDA)
Molto bello. Bravissimi!
This was the progression used by Paul Simon when writing Bridge Over Troubled Water.
Sublime.
No. Bach…
So fine
im an agnostic and I love this & Bach generally :-)
Bach was of course profoundly religious but I don't think you have to be to appreciate the beauty of this and to understand the intensity of the spirituality that guided its writing. There's a nice moment in an interview with Andras Schiff discussing that aspect - how, even if you aren't religious, Bach can still bring you to an understanding of the idea of God through his music; if I can find it I'll link to it.
If you love "Schafe können sicher weiden" then you're an Agnus-tic
And how are you today? Still agnostic?
Considering the beauty and the importance of this masterpiece, in addition to it's significance in religious expression, I would smile too, for the joy of singing this, and for what Christ gave us. Or not, I have a tendency to get tears in my eyes listening to this. Or I would smile with tears in my eyes. Does it matter? The is not a single doubt in my mind that this is being performed with respect, or else they would not be doing it in the first place. Kinda hard work, for a gag, right?? people get over it, and just enjoy.
Literally shat an entire brick wall upon listening to the entire St Matthews passion for the first time. O Haupt had been one of the most heartbreakingly beautiful things I have ever had the privilege of being alive on this earth and having ears to listen to but the entire beast was... Holy hot damn Bach. Some of the most gangster fucking harmonic arrangements he conceived of. I would love to hear it again for the first time and re-experience coming close to going insane to the point of compelled to type up incoherent rants on TH-cam at 3:28 am holy shit
+streight4lk Such a sad and empty comment you have for such profound music and such an uplifting event. Sad for you. Hope and pray you can find joy, wonder, and humility in this music and the gift of redemption Jesus gave to each of us called by His name.
Dan Greenie God bless you too and your LITERALLY "holier-than-thou" passive aggressive reply. Just kidding. Thanks for the thought, but it may interest you to know that I have found three out of four of those things. But how to find something that doesn't necessarily exist?
Bach is the real OG, no doubt 'bout it! He invented rap music as soon as his heart started beating.
Wenn I listen to "Herr unser Herrscher" I am like: Holy shit, how would that sound on a bloody giant music festival?
i'm lucky enough to have a 40,000 watt "d&b audiotechnik" system to play with at work (they're THE BEST, used on huge stadium-level tours and festivals where money is no object - look them up!) and i have listened to bach on it. it's pretty involving, to say the least.
Muito emocionante lindo
I have visited St. Sebaldus Church in Nuremberg several times in my life. Although Lutheran, it still contains the medieval shrine to St. Sebaldus, as well as statues of the Virgin Mary, the kinds of things that Protestant iconoclasts destroyed elsewhere. Priests said the Lutheran version of the Mass in this church while wearing vestments, right into the 18th century. Luther never intended to start a new denomination. His reformed church was still "catholic", and Bach's music exemplifies this, so much so that it is heard in St. Peter's in Rome. Bach's music will always be my favorite. He built cathedrals made of sound.
that's it! People nowadays just keep getting the Reformed Church far from traditions
Celestial Music, sung by Angels,descend from Heaven to Earth! Here we have a startling reversal! A Terrestrial Choir is presenting Celestial Music to Heaven!!! V.W.

It was the frozen picture at the start that got me.
When I was a little boy singing this song in church during Lent, it was very emotional to me. It's kind of graphic and the imagery would flash through my head while I sang. Most of the time it would make me choke up a bit and voice would falter.
You need ein Klein Kleenex

Perhaps aesthetically…but then I think of the indoor toilets and penicillin…
Bach is said to have composed a new hymn almost every week, for his church services...👍
Esta Hadassah “is said to have”? He composed an entire cantata per week. Although there are only slightly more than 300 of them extant, it is likely he composed more than 600!

@@parthoroy9141THE GREATEST COMPOSER OF ALL TIME
found in the same work, it very interesting to have in one continuous flow various Bach harmonization of the same (divinely beautiful) old hymn. For budding composers, a great exercise is to harmonize the naked choral and then compare with Bach's. Ouch!!! Here is a good example that explains the attraction Bach has had on jazz musicians. Among many traits, Bach is the Great Re-harmonizer .
Claude Dietrich agreed. they’re all special but that last one is just breathtaking eh? but interesting to hear the shift from major to minor, and the increasing dissonance, and how those significant changes still serve the melody beautifully.
In the Lutheran church that my family attended 60 years ago, we sang a hymn in English to this old melody. I love the old hymns! There is a certain resonance that stirs up deep feelings of solemnity and piety. The new hymns don’t do that for me.
Ein wunderbares Lied !!!
Der Text ist von Luther. Bach hat, wie viele andere Musikstücke, diesen Choral in sein Werk eingebaut. Heute würde man sagen: Plagiat oder geklaut. Damals war man großzügiger. Am meisten hat Bach sich selbst beklaut. Nur so entsteht ein großes vielstimmiges einzigartiges Werk.
Irma P. Im Gesangbuch von Wolgadeutsche ist das Lied "O Haupt,voll Blut und Wunden.." und unten steht geschrieben das Paul Gerhard hat das Lied gedichtet. Schauen Sie an dort N 147 (Wolgagesangbuch)
Je to nádhera. Chcel by som byť Bach ...
Bach Vám odpovedá svojím citátom:"Každý môže byť ako ja, ak bude taký usilovný!"
Tot tranen geroerd... Elke keer weer!
Tiefgehender Choral - ergreifend !!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Unser Vater Bach is unique!
Was booked to go and see this live in London but it was cancelled because of the virus. I hope they reschedule :(
einfach fantastisch. wenn nur nicht immer diese blöden und unqualifizierten kommentare wären. einfach nur neider, weil sie keine schöne musik aus ihrem land haben
