the power of Bach's music is phenomenal. It can rescue you from dark places, indeed. Our species may be rotten, but this... is proof that still, we are part if something higher
Mystery: How does the Netherlands Bach Society retain so many performers of this standard? The challenges in this piece are constant and varied, and all are met with sheer brilliance. Congratulations to you all.
In terms of harmony, pitch in the range of the major key generally evokes a happy feeling, Bach takes this to the extreme with attention to detail. The result is as an extremely joyful hymn that just makes you want to dance. The second section bounces to the other side of the colour spectrum, evoking a really serious emotion instead, making one lament various things. Each musical technique Bach deploys is carried out to perfection.
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was a prolific German composer who in many ways is the father of Western classical music. He was a genius at counterpoint, which means lines of melodies that wind together, creating melody and harmony at the same time. He wrote 7 sonatas for flute and harpsichord. The harpsichord was a precursor to the piano-but instead of hitting the strings with a hammer, they are plucked. A “sonata” simply means a solo instrument with some kind of accompaniment, and they are one of the most common types of chamber music. 18:55 [Astraios Chamber Music]
On this July 2, 2023, I am delightfully and spiritually listening/watching this wonderful version of BWV 147, two hundred years after it was first heard in Leipzig. Lucky us who have access to modern technology and enjoy the works of the greatest composer. Thank you NBS and TH-cam.
Our World is so much richer because it was visited by Johann Sebastian Bach. Beautiful version - brought tears to my eyes. Wonderful performance of yet another of the many musical miracles by the Master - which I simply cannot get enough of. Many thanks to the Netherlands Bach Society of musical geniuses and most excellent interpreters of Master genius, Maestro Bach. I absolutely love their brilliant performances.
As a teacher of singing, I would like to compliment the singers in this performance. Exceptionally fine voices, perfectly formed vowels, words that can be understood, excellent intonation, and not a hint of pretentiousness. Unfortunately, many singers we hear performing Baroque and early music are not of this caliber.
Absolutely. The sound engineering on this channel is absolutely second to none. It’s so clear and yet so full. Comparing the NBS Mass in B minor to Gardiners album version, the NBS has much fuller sound yet just as clear.
Making oratorios was for Bach the way of expressing his deep belief in God. For me it is the same while singing it. I may say I'm becoming a beter believer thanks to Bach. And there are even people who say they don't believe in God but they believe in Bach ☺️ well, he was a genius 🙏
I went to church and found this absolutely beautiful music. I will go to church again everytime I might hear something even remotely like this. It is divine. We shall never forget composers like Bach and performers of his music and the power behind all of this.
Thank you, Nederlands Bach Society, all musicians and singers. Don't recall how many times I listened to this cantata, especially while observing Advent this year. Bless you all and bless your excellent works.
The Dutch don't screw around when it comes to Bach, do they? This series is so precious; BRAVO! They also make good tea, and cookies, and lots of other fun goodies (plants?), and they are not slouchers when it comes to land reclamation... Good job by the Netherlands!
inderdaad, goed gepost, juiste timing :-) ondanks het feit dat het opgenomen werd twee jaar geleden ;-) toen koorleden en muzikanten nog geen afstand hoefde te houden...
concerto straordinario !! una musicalità toccante grazie all'orchestra, una vocalità entusiasmante grazie al coro e ai cantanti solisti ... riascoltarla per far vibrare le corde emozionali e raggiungere la spiritualità bachiana .... chapeau!!
Thank you. We can’t thank you enough for having this free to listen to. Family is sitting by the fire, reading, and listening to the beautiful music. Thank you.
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS PERFORMANCE BY NBS FOR YEARS NOW!!! Merry Christmas to meeee! Haha, Merry Christmas to all, may NBS continue to grace us with their amazing works!
I'm not a religious person. But I love that religion spurs artists to create such incredibly complex marvels of beauty. Bach of course is the master of the ear. But I just came from India and I saw the architectural version of what Bach did with music in Humayun's Tomb, an Islamic monument built in the late 1500s. It was conceivably the most well-structured building I have ever beheld. Every single angle was just a wonderful play of light and shadow, all in expertly-carved red sandstone and marble. The marble interior was just as mathematically precise as the exterior, and from every angle in every entrance you took, which was 12. I cried tears of joy when I had been there 4 hours and I saw the sun set, the muezzin call reverberating over the base of this tomb, which was a subtle interpretation of infinity as you went around and around in a circle. No building before or since has made me cry. Bach and the Muslim architect of Humayun's Tomb--true geniuses that married math and beauty together in one resplendent union, all for the glory of God.
Die Musik von Bach und diese Architektur sind zwei Seiten einer Münze. Die Wissenschaft heute kann immer noch nicht den Code entschlüsseln , wie solches erschaffen werden konnte!
@@jensnitsche4994die Wissenschaft oder Atheisten argumentieren ja gerne damit, dass sie das zwar jetzt noch nicht können, aber dass das eines Tages noch passieren wird oder dass man den Tod medizinisch besiegen kann.
Wonderful. Thank you NBS - and JSB- for lightening the burden of these last few months. Makes me ashamed of Britain’s desire to leave Europe - as if we ever could!
Ni siquiera una pequeña gratificación a los técnicos de sonido, músicos i el director? Ni siquiera a Johann Sebastian Bach? Quien fue el mayor músico i compositor de todos los tiempos. Respeto mucho a la gente creyente, pero actitudes como esta me hacen reafirmarme en mi pensamiento sobre la alineación de los creyentes a la iglesia y sus creencias, sin apreciar lo que hicieron y hacen los humanos en la tierra. Gloria a Johann Sebastian Bach.
La perfección en esta Tierra. La grabación es definitiva, el individualismo de los solistas, la entrada de los instrumentos, las caras, el,fervor de la interpretación. La gran arquitectura sonora de Bach y los subtítulos en inglés. Un trabajo muy bello, meditado por las cantatas. Todas ellas son maravillosas. Es el gran descubrimiento en TH-cam de vuestra falange al principio de la pandemia. ❤
Absolutely wonderful! The LORD ALMIGHTY be praised for HIS amazing GRACE in CHRIST to a dark and desperately needy world - and HIS gift of J. S. BACH whose musical ministry continues to point us to HIM. Thank you for such a glorious performance.
Absolutely amazing, a testament to what humans are capable of. The negativity bias is so strong in our culture, but things like this and the engineering and architectural marvels we produce, NASA's achievements, and the kindness of ordinary people give me great hope for us.
J'adore le premier choeur de cette merveilleuse Cantate depuis ma toute petite enfance et je l'adore toujours... Quelle musique merveilleuse, merci pour cette belle interprétation, la trompette, vraiment je suis au ciel!🤩
How can anything, written, played, singed on earth be so heavenly beautiful? A simple question, but I believe if we had the answer, we would not understand it.
One of my New Year resolutions is to attend a concert performed by the Netherlands Bach Society. They brought me great comfort during the Lockdown and Work From Home period here in Luxembourg. A period when I couldn´t visit my family in Amsterdam.
The neatherlands Bach society hat die besten Solisten, den besten Zusmmenklang, das beste Verständnis der Bachschen Musik. Ihr zuzuhören ist reiner Genuss.
Wunderschön 🙏was für ein gewaltiges großes Werk zum Lobe unseres Dreifaltigen Gottes mit diesen wundervollen Stimmen und Instrumenten die alles zum strahlen bringen 🙏🙏☀️☀️👏👏👏
Curious about hearing the complete version of Cantata 147, instead of just Jesu, joy of man's desiring all the time, "Schäme dich, o Seele, nicht" really got me fascinated by this great composer. Wonderful that you present this masterpiece in whole, so that we can enjoy it all. 😀👍
15:04 'til the end of the aria makes me smile seeing how Sato takes liberty with BACH. :-) It works when it's done brilliantly & sparingly such as here-near the of the aria. Beautiful NBS!! Thank you!
"When words fail, music speaks" (Hans Christian Andersen). The great Bach, one of his finest works, a heartfelt and virtually flawless performance, and a worldwide audience here, united in admiration and love for what music gives us. Goodbye to the old year, a better one awaits.
The performance of Wohl Mir... (16.09) is about as near perfection as possible, especially considering how well-known it is around the world. I'm so happy I found this amazing group and listen to/watch each video with wonder at the artistry. Thank you! One day I dream of returning to the land of my ancestors to see you in person!
I suppose like many others this is one of my very favourite Cantatas. I watched and listened to this performance with happiness and thanksgiving in the half hour build up to Christmas Day. How wonderfully Alex Potter sang and the power of Matthias Winckhler's voice really impressed. I do wish that NBS would give the names of the obbligato performers. I really enjoyed the Oboe d'Amore playing in the Arias. As always excellent playing by the continuo. What a delightful gift from the NBS. Many thanks to you all. I wish all of you reading this a joyful Christmas. Greetings again from Port Moresby PNG. :)

Grande découverte sur You Tube de votre phalange au début de la pandémie.
I know that "Jesu bleibet meine Freude" is the most famous part from this cantata, but can we just appreciate how beautiful the rest of the piece is as well? For instance the aria "Bereite dir, Jesu" is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard in my life!

Hi Ms Mac N
my 8 year old daughter wanted me to comment that she thinks this is beautiful music. I agree.
You're raising her right, good job haha
My 8 year old daughter thinks classical music is boring. And for her, "classical music" includes The Rolling Stones.
The best way for a child to appreciate classical music is to play or sing it.

Indeed!

The duets between the oboe and soloists are fantastic. Bravo Martin, Griet and Alex
And they do all of this in such a humble way, no glamour. A great service and treasure for everyone. ❤
Check out BWV 29 - Soprano and oboe, but the whole cantata is pure magic.
Bach konnte seine Musik wohl nie selbst in dieser Brillianz erleben. Er hatte selbst kaum Zugang zu hervorragenden Musikern...
Bach. The only composer that can make you dance and cry at the same time
Can’t agree more

The result is as an extremely joyful hymn that just makes you want to dance. The second section bounces to the other side of the colour spectrum, evoking a really serious emotion instead, making one lament various things.

Who doesn't?
ALLAH..
It would be WRONG (very, very wrong) not to ! This performance, and this project, are wonderful.
So do I...
Moi aussi, avec admiration et reconnaissance
This is a gift to the world.
Bach expresses such inexhaustible joy whose source can only be divine.
Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for showing Your Beauty and your Truth and your Goodness through Bach's music!

Such a wonderfully sparkling performance. Watching the faces and listening to these sounds is a rewarding start to a New Year, full of uncertainty, and potential! Thank you to each musician!!
meravigliosa esecuzione voci stupende e orchestra fantastica bravissimi complimenti
Che meraviglia. ....pura gioia......ascoltata oggi Natale 2020 fa passare la malinconia del lockdown...
Qué maravilla, pura alegría, escuchada hoy en Navidad de 2020 hace acabar con la melancolía de la depresión. ❤
La perfection sur cette terre, l’ enregistrement est définitif, l ‘Individualisation des solistes , de la venue des instruments , des visages, la ferveur de l ‘ interprétation . Le grand dessein de Bach !! Et les subtiles in english ... Très beau travail , médité sur les Cantates. Elles sont toutes sublimes. Grande découverte sur You Tube de votre phalange au début de la pandémie.
I know that "Jesu bleibet meine Freude" is the most famous part from this cantata, but can we just appreciate how beautiful the rest of the piece is as well? For instance the aria "Bereite dir, Jesu" is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard in my life!
"Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben" The most bautifull Bach's cantata. Thank you so much.
What a X-mas gift! Thank you NBS!

Bach es el Emperador de la Música, no sólo de la Clásica!!
Algunas melodías de esta cantata son inolvidables. El genio de Bach en estado puro.
Frohe Weihnachten und ein Gutes Neues Jahr allen Beteiligten und allen Zuhörern.
Danke Niederländische Bachgesellschaft!
