Came for the beautiful J S Bach, stayed for the heart health benefits of this piece - truely, to God my Heart belongs
Gott allein❤
Bach's music is like a childhood you never forget.
@Luboman411 you're welcome ;)
...in the sense that it has a feeling of fundamental and enduring importance. For me, it a kind of knowing that I have come home, and that home is always there for me to come to. I find that this "coming home" is simply necessary for me.
YES!
So true, but we must address the fact that the average age of the audience members of this wonderful performance is about 70. Of course the vital and eternal truth of Bach comes clear in its playing, and like you I really believe that the youth today would properly acknowledge and
appreciate and really love this essential music. But...?..How to gather them in?
Beautiful description!!!
Gott soll allein mein Herze haben! Excelente.
This Alto Is MAGNIFICENT !.....She is truly Remarkable in her heartfelt singing .........Bach had a Singer Of her Quality in mind when he wrote this Fabulous Cantata .
Que cette voix d'Alto est belle!
contralto con hermosa y potente voz podría ser wagneriana
What a time to be alive! One can just pull up such astonishing music with performances so perfect as to make you lose your breath at times! This is fantastic!
Right ! the problem is that, whith such prime quality music avalaible in recording, there are fewer and fewer people paying to listen to "live music" ...
@@jeanbreuer2128 Tell me about it! I'm a composer in the new world of music saturation for free! The Centrifugal Satz Clock moves forwards anyway! I'm happy that it can be easily distributed on line so that's a silver lining.
@@jeanbreuer2128 Paying? Take a flight to Zurich, Switzerland. St. Gallen is reachable by bus or train, Yor will listen to the music live...
Steve Kusaba time is wonderful and also very dangerous! Music is not so effective to stop degradation of mankind,alas
@@zvezdinki7998 "Degradation of mankind", those are very unclear words. Until someone defines what that means, it could mean anything. I'd agree if it referred to the cruelty to humans and animals. That is VERY degrading to mankind.
Comment ne pas avoir envie d'écouter, d'écouter encore, ne serait-ce pas celà le bonheur?
So geht's mir auch
How cool is Rudolf Fabulous playing whilst standing! turning pages and conducting the orchestra Thank you to all for this great performance
Gott und Bach in meinem Herzen
Imagine what it must have been like in Bach's time: no radio or tv, limited written material. Then to walk into church every week and hear Bach's glorious music, conducted and even performed by the Master himself. I wonder if people realized how lucky they were.
Transcending no doubt🤲
And most of the people, sitting there for social obligation, didn't even really care. They were thinking about their shopping lists, the woman next door or their evening beers, and just waited for the service to end so they can leave and go after their business. Thank God history made Bach justice and gave him the fame he deserves but had never experienced in his life, so we can immerse ourself in his art today or any other time we feel like.
I wish I could work as much as Bach....
Pensi che avessero compreso? Io ne dubito
@@xbqchm I might disagree with you. There is considerable evidence that at the Zimmerman Coffee Cafe (Bach adored coffee), there was enormous demand for Bach's children to perform there for coffee bar customers. I'm sure they didn't perform sacred music, but there was such enormous demand that Bach's children didn't have enough time to perform, even though the money was probably "good."
People also flocked to Bach's organ performances. I don't think he was allowed to charge for those. There is actually considerable evidence that his music was revered when he was alive. We have to look no further than the rhythmical nature of his music. Even the Sinfonia at the beginning of this famous Contata is actually a dance. Look at the musicians.
I call this the "Bach dance."

Warning : this is very addictive music ! You listen once, you listen forever… ! Sublime ! Thank you so much, Maestro Lutz ! Every day, again and again. What a pleasure ! Congratulation to all the musicians, too, they all are very special.
Marc, You are so right, in my case I was about 12 years old and ensured I stood close as possible to our school grand piano during Morning School Assembly as our science teacher Mr Morris, a gifted musician would each day play different pieces by Bach and other composers as we filed into the School hall every morning. I remember being particularly captivated by ‘Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring’ and I began to recognise and learn individual pieces. I looked forward to hearing him play, it became an obsession and I could feel the notes of the school’s Bluthner Grand piano resonate around me. This was particularly so when the lid was raised. I’d watch the action hammers and dampers lift and fall as he played. The pupils were never allowed to actually touch the piano, it was regarded as a special item of school equipment and was always kept under a heavy padded cover when not in use. My reverence for instrument was duly recognised by Mr Morris and I became school Monitor with responsibility for removing the cover before School Assemblies and replacing it after the service. In time I was allowed to actually play the piano and learned to play several favourite pieces by Bach and Beethoven strictly under his supervision. It was the first piano I had the pleasure of learning to play and did so for many hours over the years after school had finished. It sounded wonderful in the large school hall. 65 years ago I was given the score of Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata by another teacher and still have it in my collection today.
@@evanofelipe Thank you for your kind reply. As you talk about the Blüthner Grand, it reminds of the fact that I possessed one such piano myself, a 3/4 Grand, a family piano owned by the famous Solvay family, who sold it to me. You evoque the special resonance of your piano at school. Mine was equiped with the ALIQUOT MECHANISM, consisting of a 4 th string suspended freely above the 3 other strings below, resulting in a special colourful resonance, typical for those old Blüthner pianos. Only Blüthner pianos were equiped with this device, which was patented. Maybe your Blüthner was also equiped with it ?
Beautifully said
Bachkantate so wie dein Name ist dein Ruhm
Bravo. This piece is so intricate yet flowed like a mountain spring on a beautiful sunny day.
So eine wunderbare Alt-Stimme ❤
Rudolf Lutz is definitely a stud! He conducts, he plays, he teaches. And apparently a Christian believer as well. What joy and professionalism he brings to the task. He and Master Bach are a pair for the ages.
Welch eine Stimme, so klar, rein und von großer Klangfülle! Und so eine eindeutig klare Aussage, ein gelebtes Bekenntnis der gesungenen Worte! 🌄🌞
J.S Bach - einfach einmalig. Was wäre die Welt ohne Ihn. Kompliment auch an Chor und Orchester
_GOD bless all performers!_
Zeus?
I adore how perfectly engaged every one of the performers is. And what beautiful articulation of the keyboard while standing!
I closed my eyes...for a moment I thought I was in heaven...I opened them and no...no....I was hearing music of J. S. Bach; he describes heaven in his music...
That's exactly what this kind of music should evoke! Bach, the fifth evangelist :-)!
God alone should have my heart
It's rather special to hear a vocalist singing Bach and not sounding like opera.
Für mich auch, Freude, Friede, Liebe für der Lieber Got und unsere Seele! Grüsse von Acapulco Mexico.
God bless all these wonderful performers from around the world. Amen.
Großartig! Allen voran Rudolf Lutz!

In the *symphonia", I love the full stop & then a full reprise!
Snow on the ground and in the air here in Utah. As we swing into Christmas, I want to thank you for bringing this Cantata 169 to my home from Switzerland where I lived and served my church for 30 months. The Swiss know how to celebrate the birth of Christ.
well said, brother
Ah! la neige incomparable de Sandy, et le téléphérique construit par des Suisses d'Appenzell et le pilote qui joue de la youtze et chante accompagné de son accordéon!
Et puis le resto avec les top sirloins !
Was für Talente!
ja, Spitzenklasse
Maravillosa música, como siempre, del más extraordinario compositor de todos los tiempos. ¡Y con tan buenísimos intérpretes tocando instrumentos originales! Un lujo absoluto. Muchas gracias por compartirlo 💕💕
Bach....Un Extraterrestre secondo me 👑✨🎇🎆🌌🛸🪐😊❤
The opening sinfonia is so light, agile, and joyous. What a delight!
Che gioia e pace sa donare questa musica divina! Grazie agli artisti che la eseguono magistralmente
What a great start from the violinist at the perfect tempo and so it goes on with superb musicianship from everyone
She,concertmaster is realy great.🥰
un régal pour les oreilles et aussi pour les yeux!
unglaubliche Harmonien... Wunderschön musiziert. Danke!
Fantastically done and all coming from such as small community as Trogen in Switzeland. Bach of course is the GOLD Standard in all of Music. I cannot think of one of his works that I would not listen again. Aloha
Can someone tell me if Mr. Lutz is still alive?
@@patcates9168 he is
i am surprised that no one has mentioned how incredibly sublime this alto is. It is the only time I have heard her. She is very good.
Agreed.
Bach would have “proposed” to her.
Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)
She is fantastic!!
She is!
Apologies, however my thinking is that she is a bit too strong for the orchestra !!!!! Her timbre is not quite in keeping with the orchestra; my feeling is that she is more suited to Wagner or Strauss;strong, but not sweet enough IMO !!!!
Die Aufnahmen der Bachstiftung werden für alle ein Vorbild bleiben, die Bach lieben.
Prima !
J'adore cette magnifique Cantate, merci Bach😍
Connaissez-vous notre atelier "Bach Factory" sur cette cantate ? th-cam.com/video/NrwGzfbrxFY/w-d-xo.html
Cantata BWV 169 is Delightful, just too sublime. The highlights are 9 fantastic minutes of Sinfonia!
It doesn't hurt the music, to have a culture where God is taken seriously.
not2tees well put
Amen!!!
Was taken seriously. No more.
Amen🤲
Or any other forms of art. Or even science.
God blessed bach a lot ! ~
Bach blessed us with his great music ! ~
The music, Bach’s music when played in period instruments is beyond good.
I also have the problem of hearing this over and over, non-stop.
Amazing how Buxtehude was wonderful to listen to, and then Bach came along. Its like night and day.
Bravo
3:59 Cello player REALLY rockin' to the music.
the GREATEST one, J S BACH.
Bach sempre i en tot moment...magnífica experiència , mestre lutz
Esecuzione veramente straordinaria! Davvero pura e brillante! 🕊️
Einfach danke Ihnen für diese wunderbare Arbeit! Ich denke, daß Bach hätte seine Musik so gespielt!
--Praise God for His J.S. Bach and his marvelous music ! The title of this cantata in English is "God alone shall have my heart" !
Gorgeous instruments, great artists, und die schöne Deutsche Sprache.
These are, with only one exception I can think of, marvellous performances, to be treasured and savoured.
Exzellente Performance! Ganz große Kunst! Bach lächelt höchst zufrieden.
The usual wonderful quality! You can't be disappointed when you click on Bachstiftung. :) Thank you for all your hard work so we could enjoy Bach's heavenly music! :)
I was fortunate to play this tonight, and as a violist I particularly enjoyed the 3rd aria (18:01) "Stirb in mir, Welt"... what a bliss! And the camera man here clearly feels the same way, that viola line is absolutely irresistible!
Sehr schön und ganz heiter gespielt! Die Stimme ist wunderbar und reif. Vielen Dank!💜🙏
Gott allein!!! Danke, Bach.
Danke allen Künstlern, und natürlich für hochladen ❤
Gern geschehen!
I need help, I have listened to this about 80 times from start to finish. I don't know what to do about it, so I guess I am going to listen to it again.
It really is one of Lutz’ finest efforts.
I don't blame you. For a live performance, this is as near perfection as one could hope for. The 9 minutes of sinfonia are utterly sublime.
Hugh Hillyard-Parker Each of the great Bach conductors brings something special. Lutz is likely the best musician among them
@@vincentkluwe-yorck8658 The addiction, so I started listening to at least one of the Rudolf Lutz offerings a day, then added several playings of each Bach suite on my one of classical guitars, starting with the Chaconne and then continuing with all of the Bach lute, cello and violin suites transcribe to guitar, limiting myself to 5 hours away on the guitar. As I was finishing up playing the Gigue, final movement, of Bach 996 tonight, I realized how blessed we are to have Bach, nothing wrong with being addicted listening and playing Bach. Although a little renaissance can't hurt.
+Larry Brandes - I have also needed help to understand deeply Bach's compositions. But, what I have discovered is its secret: The beauty of Music makes our life. The sound of nature: it's silence and its mystery; it is fabulous to listen to Bach.
Super uplifting music.
Praise to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who gave us the ability to play music and sing.
Alpino Alpini , You trawl the You Tube videos and trash God fearing people.
You speak for yourself. Everyone I am doing a favour. Sharing the joy and excitement of Jesus Christ.
Pray to end abortion.
Save the babies, help the ladies and stop the crazies.
Alto Ariea die besten Rezitativen aus Korea
On ne peut être que heureux lorsque la musique de Bach est servie par de si bons artistes. Bravo. Gruss aus frankreich.
Einen lieben Gruß auch von mir aus dem Oberbergischen
Toll! Lustig! Positiv! Tiefsinnig! Und : nicht nur Tuba, sondern auch Traum-Singstimme! 👍
Thank you so much! God bless you all!
That alto soloist was unfrigginbelievable ! She must give this world many many children with her talent! Please! It is people like her that keep God from just killing us all.
trwsandford your God sounds scary. She better not hit any wrong notes or we’re all doomed!
lol what a gross comment
@@Koimamai_suntoma shut up Karen
Brilliant, thank you!!☀️
Claude Eichenberger - alto, sempre magnífica, eficiente e com atuações dignas de menção.
Stunning performance.
Every atom in my being is rejoicing - magnificent🤲
Another ravishing cantata from this marvelous ensemble. I am only now starting to realize what a peerless masterpiece each and every cantata is. Can’t imagine a better performance - the crisp ensemble, Lutz’s spirited organ playing, and most of all the heavenly singing of Claude Eichenberger, a stunning woman with a voice of liquid gold. And that final note of the bass singer is just awesome. Whoever thought it a good idea to put those horrific images as a backdrop should be seriously examined. Very bad taste IMO, and distracting from an otherwise perfect video. And the 16 dislikers, they are not worthy of anything beautiful.
Grossartige Interpretation von Bachs Musik! "Seelenbalsam". Tut dem Herzen einer Auslandschweizerin wohl! Gruss aus USA
Aleluya! ...y es que escuchar esta Cantata, en este luminoso amanecer del II Domingo de Pascua con el fondo de los trinos de los madrugadores gorriones, es ver al Resucitado
Am i the only lutenist to remind you their theorbist is playing a LEFT HANDED INSTRUMENT? What a wonderful ensemble!
Delicioso, placentero y consolador. No me canso escuchar esta cantata que con sus sencillez toca profundamente el alma. Gracias.
Ursula. Estaba buscando un comentario en español. Por favor , podrias decirme si esta pieza es la original de Sebastian Bach? La verdad no se de esta musica. Pero la busque debido a que escuche que esta pieza vibra a la magnitud que vibra nuestra glandula tiroides humana. Gracias anticipadas. Espero tu respuesta.
Excelente interpretación. Mi pieza favorita es el aria con la intro de órgano, 11:37 espectacular, y la siguiente aria es preciosa también. Gracias.
Fantastic performance!! Congratulations to all the soloists!!
My favorite interpreters of the great J.S. Bach Cantatas....sublime! The first time I heard a Bach Cantata performance by Maestro Lutz & his brilliant singers & instrumentalists was a revelation. It was like hearing that particular Cantata (that I'd heard dozens of times) as if I was hearing for the first time. I only wish I could have heard all of their performances live. Maestro R. Lutz is a genius. My admiration & compliments come from a professional musician involved in opera & sacred music for over 45 years. I wish I could purchase all of the Bach Foundation video & audio performances. I find watching the performances even more a joy than just listening. As I have become a great admirer of the Freiburger Barockorchester, I am also equally admiring of Maestro Lutz & the Bach Foundation. Two brilliant ensembles of incredibly talented musicians. I mention the Freiburger because I have noted many of the wonderful instrumentalists play with both ensembles.
Sublime. Bravo.
simply gorgeous🙌🙌🌷🌻❤
Perfekt!
Alle Interpreten, allen voran Rudolf Lutz bringen Höchstleistung!
Wunderbar, die Originalinstrumente!
Dankeschön für diesen Hörgenuss!❤
Very well done! The organist-conductor plays plays his chest organ excellently indeed, and the singers are a joy to hear!
Fantástica interpretación. Música y Cantata divina
La belleza absoluta.
Theorbo, dulcian, violone, baroque cello - my favourite continuo!
Wonderful beyond words to express! Thank you all!! God's blessings to all of you!!
Could listen to this wonderful group of musicians all day long .
Le style unique de bach nous enchante. interprétation superbe.
Großartige Veröffentlichung, herzlichen Dank
Rudolf Lutz: Ein Glücksfall für die Musikwelt!
Gee how can he play the organ standing up with such precision
Simple but it has natural and fabulous sound! Amazing!
This music is really Godsent!! Thnx to all of you...
This musicians are extraordinarily good. I wanna get old playing music like that. 👏🎹🎶🎻
Thank You very much for this wonderful Cantata. It was a blessing to me!
How delightfully embracing
I can sleep well when I listen to this music
They all perform this with such emotion, awesome to see!
A glimpse of heaven
Despite everything Bach endures, in all of his incarnations throughout the ages.
Preciosa cantata interpretada por un reducido número de magníficos músicos.-cordiales felicitaciones y saludos desde Chile
Großartige Musik! Vielen Dank dafür :)
so busy playing and sigingthe notes thzey forget this is about joy
I researched this cantata and noticed that it has been posted around the date when Bach composed it, Oct. 20 (1726). Really lovely performance. Much thanks. (Boy, certainly not enough music for the 4 voices together, huh?!-haha)
Thank you for the translation
