The tenor aria is one of the most beautiful moments in Bach's music, it is monumental standing on its own feet.
Exceptionally sad and dramatic, if I hadn't heard that aria with my own two ears I would definitely not believe such perfect storytelling could exist.
The alto's recitative accompaniment is quite original! Bach never ceases to amaze me!
So true!!!
I love the Alto Aria. The soloist is amazing. That long note!
Very transparant, amazingly well done!
The alto held that gorgeous, colorful note perfectly for about 12 seconds! The lutes sound great and I love how the viola da gambas harmonize. I love this Cantata! Every time I listen to it I hear something new. Absolutely breathtaking!
I think that that Der Ewigkeit saphrines Haus is just a most marvellous composition and Bernhard Berchtold and flautist are superb in the way in which his aria takes primacy over everything in the orchestra.....so much brilliance in the counterpoint and the difficulty for the tenor to sing and to build to primacy above the orchestra and I am not a trained musician.Thank you one and all and J.S. Bach.
Probablement la plus grande cantate de JS Bach. J'ai découvert cette ode funèbre en 1979 - concert donné par Philippe Herreweghe et son collégium vocale de Gand en l'église St Medard à Paris, couplée avec la sublime cantate BWV 39, oeuvres qui vous accompagnent toute votre vie !
Quand on "tombe" sur les publicités TH-cam, celles qui viennent polluer l'écoute de la musique qu'on aime, on n'est pas déçu : on voit quel monde de référence TH-cam promeut. Parfois du chocolat, parfois des chaussures de sport, mais souvent des voyages et des croisières. Je rassure TH-cam : le chocolat, oui, parfois, les chaussures de sport, une fois tous les tremblements de terre, les croisières Costa ou les voyages Leclerc, jamais. Ces publicités lancées au hasard, aucun risque de convaincre. Une pollution sonore et visuelle, reflet d'un monde décadent, uniquement mercantile. Beurk !
This cantata shows Bach's genius perfectly. The openning chorus is simply amazing. It brought tears to my eyes.
To mine, too. This is truly pure genius with a touch of the divine.
Since I was 16 (46 years ago) I've viewed Bach's cantatas as the height of musical perfection. This lifted me on this Thanksgiving Day in America.
Yes I agree. The sacred cantatas are the most important body of music to have come down to mankind.
Ms. Laabs just became my favorite alto! The way she held that really long note in the aria gave me chills! Herr Lutz has found the BEST performers for this ambitious cantata project. Just....WOW!! 🤩
Dass Bach die größten Vokalwerke aller Zeiten geschaffen hat, ist allgemein bekannt. Aber der Eingangschor ist zusammen mit dem Schlusschor aus BWV 244 meiner Meinung nach außerdem noch eine Topleistung in einer speziellen Disziplin: Keinem anderen Komponisten ist es je gelungen,musikalisch so eindrücklich zu weinen.
Mir zwingt der Eingangschor jedesmal die Tränen in die Augen. Für mich ist es eines der größten, wenn nicht sogar das größte Werk Bachs.
Dass einem hier die Tränen kommen ist kein Zufall. Meines Erachtens geschieht hier etwas total faszinierendes: 7 Jahre nach dem Tod von Bachs erster Frau Maria Barbara drückt der Komponist auf musikalische Weise gegenüber dem frisch verwitweten König August sein Mitgefühl aus, fast scheint es, als wolle er Ihm sagen: "lieber König, ich weiß ganz genau, was du grade fühlst, ich habe das selbe auch schon durchlebt."
@@schaulinmarkus6002 Bach - man weiß, was man an dir besessen; die Nachwelt wird dich nicht vergessen, bis dieser Weltbau einst zerbricht. (aus dem Schlusschor)
I sent this to a music professor in Vermont who had never heard it, and she loved it.
I just love how into the groove the floppy-haired bass in the back row is in the opening chorus- I feel just the same when singing Bach! Aside from him such joyous and skilled singing and playing all-round. This is one of my favourite cantatas. Bravi tutti!
I just need to add one more comment and that is that Bach is more than a genius.
Another superb performance by your talented ensemble under the direction of Rudolf Lutz. A special commendation for Annekathrin Laabs - alto, who sings with style and feeling. Thank you for sharing and congratulations to all participants.
The most beautiful music in the world and the Germans are most themselves in performing it. You'd hope more of them were convinced Christians like Bach was. It's no mere coincidence.
La ode e' un capolavoro E' sempre un piacere poi vedere ed ascoltare questa orchestra ed il coro, il loro grande direttore, e i vari cantanti scritturati veri specialisti del barocco
What a gift this performance is!!
@Bachstiftung thanks for existing!
Sublime music making. As played here, this major Cantata shines all the way through. Majestic choral and orchrstral parts coupled with intimate, heartfelt solo parts. Excellent choice of voices and great purity and sensitivity of period intruments, like the violin, the violas and the woodwinds. A balanced and harmonious ensemble marked by simplicity and humanism.
The final chorus is so sublime and dance-like, full of grace and melancholy ❤❤
Wunderbar!!!!
Da un po' di tempo ascolto le esecuzioni della J.S.Bach Foundation, e devo dire che quanto ad amalgama orchestrale e vocale sono davvero tra i primi in circolazione. Apprezzo moltissimo la scelta dei solisti vocali operata da Rudolf Lutz, voci belle, chiare, rotonde, leggermente liriche (magnifico il contralto), perfettamente incastonate nella produzione bachiana. Congratulazioni!
Magnifique, sublime, extraordinaire performance, quelle clarité, quelle ambiance, la 198 est au niveau des Passions. Mille mercis Maestro Lutz.
Effectivement, sinon Bach n'aurait pas utilisé cette musique pour sa Passion selon St Marc!
Después de millones de años, una criatura se alzo sobre sus dos patas, empezó a utilizar herramientas, aprendió a utilizar el fuego, desarrolló un lenguaje, se protegió de la lluvia, el frío, de los animales salvajes, aprendió a vivir en comunidad, desarrollo el afecto, el amor, la compasión.. el arte, se asomó al universo, pensó en un Dios. Hambre, enfermedad, guerra,muerte, miseras acompañaron a esta criatura durante milenios... pero un día nació Bach y se puso a componer...Mereció la pena tanto esfuerzo.
IN MILLIONS OF YEARS MAN IS REALLY THE SAME BALL OF SINS AND OBSESSIONS FOR THE WORST OF EMOTIONS.
WE HAVE CHANGED SUPERFICIALLY BUT THE SAME WARS GO ON WITH THE SAME PEOPLE OVER AND OVER AGAIN, EXCEPT THE WEAPONS ARE MORE DEADLY NOW. THE THREATS ARE MORE FRIGHTENING.
I watch this every day at work. It's one of the most interesting Bach Cantatas I've ever heard. There's something so haunting about the last chorale ...
Agreed, there is a special sound to this cantata. Almost anachronistic, like it didn't come from this era. almost beckoning, luring and lascivious. Sexy dare I say.
At work.. nice job!
I agree...it's a fascinating cantata.
Try to get hold of a proper (plain!) translation and then try to find out about the wider evolutionary history of the cantata - including Augustus' role as king of Poland and his wife's attitude towards that. It's a crime story! It perfectly explains the three repeats of
You poets, write! We shall read:
she was the sanctuary of virtue,
the joy and praise of her subjects,
the greatest of all queens.
in the end.
From the first notes..this music just feels so good!
A taste of Heaven. Thank you.
Me parece una interpretación, además de elegante y bella, sincera. Se nota que los músicos se identifican con la música, la entienden y la saben transmitir. Excelentes todos. Bravo por el director que con honestidad y sinceridad transmite el legado de Bach. Ojalá podamos ver más como esta
Peça maravilhosa.
Rudolf Lutz, sempre nos brindando com a sua competência, a Genialidade de JS Bach!
Yet another sublime perofmance from Bach Foundation with Herr Lutz. Thank you all.Greetings from Ireland.
Alles sehr schön ! Gute Musiker mit viel gefühl gebracht. Nur sehr schade das diese Sopran nicht geeignet ist für diese diskrete Musik.
I am so grateful for all these performances. Each of them heals the soul. And thank you Bach. Genius heals like nothing else.
Grandios.
The area 8 (Der Ewigkeit Saphiren Haus) is one of the most outstanding achievements of Bach's art. And this is the best performance I know of. Amazing! Thank you very much for the gift of bringing it to life again.
No matter how skilled a female soprano is, you'll never get the touching effect the soprano aria intends unless you use a very skilled boy soprano. Bach shows that he is unashamedly willing to rip the emotional hearts out of the audience by having a young boy sing about his dead mother! Jan Patrick O'Farrell of the Hanover Boys Choir did a good job of it on the Harnoncourt/Leonhardt set. (How a boy with a very Irish name ended up in a German boys choir is an entirely different question!)
But you have to have unusually talented boy sopranos, and it doesn't always work in the Harnoncourt/Leonhardt recordings. Bach's sopranos were about sixteen or seventeen years old, not ten or eleven.
Great performance!! Thank you for posting. Unser Vater JS BACH never dissapoints us in any way!! Allways the best of the best.
So schön! Alle Stimmen sind einwandfrei! Danke für den baren Genuss!
Danke für das Lob!
Amazing ensemble 👏👏👏
Quel beau cadeau que nous offre Rudolf Lutz avec cette cantate parmi les plus extraordinaires de J.S. Bach. Je l'avais découverte, il y a assez longtemps avec l'interprétation de Jurgen Jurgens et a toujours fait partie de mes cantates préférées.
Bravo..
Absolutamente bello. Tempo maravilloso. Mil gracias
GLORIOUS SINGING ! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH US ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥♥
excellent performance !!!!!!!!!
Siete meravigliosi
Beautiful
Much better with womens singying the superior voices! Thank you, so much!
Outstanding and astounding.
Sehr sehr schön. Ich habe im Eingangssatz auf den Einsatz des Chores gewartet, um die Musik mit meiner heimlichen Referenz, nämlich einer Aufnahme mit und von Herrn Gardiner und dem Monteverdi Choir, zu vergleichen. Es gibt keinen Sieger. Beide Aufnahmen sind spitze. Herr Wollny in seiner Funktion als Leiter des Leipziger Bacharchivs hat ganz vorzüglich die Historie der Aufführung dieser Kantate beleuchtet und sie seinerzeit im NDR Kulturradio vorgestellt. Aber auch zu dieser Thematik haben die St. Gallener Bach- Enthusiasten ja ganze Arbeit geleistet. Nochmal zur Aufführung der Kantate selbst: das Publikum kann sich glücklich schätzen, an dieser vorzüglichen Aufführung teilgenommen haben zu dürfen. Danke.
Na ja, es sind eben persönliche Erfahrungen. Ich finde, Gardiner hinkt da ziemlich hinterher.
Alles wunderbar, alles komplett und das Tüpfelchen auf dem i ist Bernhard Berchthold.
Très belle interprétation de cette cantate par les choristes et instrumentistes. Merci à Bachstiftung .
Every time I hear YOUR version of ANY Bach cantata, it results being always better than all the versions I heard. Where is your secret?
Probably great unknown soloists and instrumentalists. Also their performance venue is a treasure in terms of reverberation, which add a lot to a performance.
luca baresi I think there are three reasons: First, the recordings are live. This means, that the whole piece is performed in a sequence. Second, we give our musicians enough time to rehearse. Everybody, also the instrumentalist, know exactly what the text means. Third, Rudolf Lutz. Nothing to add.
Io penso grande serieta' e professionalita' come primo requisito, fondamentale Poi ovviamente la bravura degli interpreti, che sono artisti di levatura internazionale E naturalmente il fatto di avere un talento come direttore artistico
Großartig!
Belíssimo o trabalho que vocês desenvolvem - o conjunto da obra. Lastimo que moro no Brasil, país que vem perdendo sua tradição cultural musical, sendo massacrada pela baixa cultura como o funk e outras coisas deploráveis. Encontrar um trabalho como o que vocês desenvolvem resgata nossa esperança na divulgação da alta cultura musical. Brasil, país cada vez mais perdido na área cultural e política. Parabéns a toda equipe. Continuo acompanhando as apresentações. Um dia, talvez, se conseguir algum dinheiro, vou conhecê-los pessoalmente.
The work that you develop - the whole of the work - is beautiful. I am sorry that I live in Brazil, a country that has lost its musical cultural tradition, being massacred by the low culture like funk and other deplorable things. Finding a job like the one you develop rescues our hope in spreading high musical culture. Brazil, a country increasingly lost in the cultural and political area. Congratulations to the whole team. I continue to follow the presentations. One day, maybe if I can get some money, I'll meet them in person. (google translation).
Magnífico.
Sehr schön!!!!
Magnificent!
Fundació Bach (Bachstiftung) i a més suïssa. Que més per fer una música perfecta? Gracies Sr. Lutz per fer-nos coneixar una mica més al pare Bach (Johan Sebastian)
Seit20Jahre höre ich die Kantsten zu von Fern Asien Korea
Aus dem Schlusschor:
Man weiss, was man an dir besessen
Die Nachwelt wird dich nicht vergessen
Bis dieser Weltbau einst zerbricht.
Damit hat Bach sich selbst das schönste Denkmal gesetzt.
Wunderschön gesagt - und so wahr.
Hoomeyow!!
A lado de Bach, los demás compositores que ha dado la historia son solamente niños.
Ualmindelig smuk og velspillet musik og et veloplagt skønt kor. Smukt......
Sibylla Rubens, ist sie Beste Soprano, dass meine Meinung ist.
Alt hat mir besser gefallen.
Johann Sebastian Bach hat wohl die Noten geschrieben, die Orchestration organisiert, die Tempi gesetzt, aber Rudolf Lutz mit seinen wunderbaren Instrumentisten, Sänger und Sängerinnen, hat die Partitur aus dem Staub herausgeholt, sie alle haben ihr das Leben eingehaucht
Beautiful, but why the rush?
Please don't stop
11:40 NICE
Is it just me, or do the two viola da gamba look very different?
Another sublime performance! Maestro Lutz never disappoints. My wife and I must find a way to get to protestant church Trogen in Switzerland. Don't worry: no Go-Fund-Me request. Again, can this interpretation be any more glorious?
We would be delighted to meet you in Trogen!
I hope you get there..soon!! 💐
What about that lady with the double bass, on the far right ?
😘?
Magnificent performance! I don't know why but I imagined everyone wearing a monocle and it made it funnier
22:08
Can the dislikers explain themselves?
Lad os se Herrens lys for vor fod.......
IN THE FIRST MOVEMENT THERE ARE TWO FORCEFUL DECEPTIVE CADENCES WHICH REALLY TAKE THE LISTENER FOR A RIDE INTO THE UNEXPECTED. I JUST LOVE THIS PIECE AS I DO ALL BACH PIECES. TOO.
Alt ist toll
BACH SOMETIMES CREATES THESE FRENCH OVERATURES WITH GREAT SUCCESS. NOT TO MUCH ELSE OF THE FRENCH STYLE EXCEPT FOR A BERCEAU OR LULLABY / PATORAL. JUST A GREAT MUSIC ALL OVER. LISTENING FROM MADRID R. WALKER
Its such wonderful music. Bach is dangerous, because one would prefer to believe his theology through his music, than the bible. Good that his theology is so bible-close.
I prefer Palestrina, Orlando di Lassus, Gesualdo, Palestrina, Pergolessi, and meny more, these composers and many more give as more enjoy and deep feeling of God.
I choose not to choose.
