    Ich spiele in einer Woche diese Kantate in Japan, es ist so eine interessante Vorlesung über den Musik und Text. Ich habe ganz viel gelernt und mit voller Freude werden wir diese Kantate musizieren. Vielen Dank!

    Thank you so much for the English subtitles. I am very familiar with this cantata, but now I can appreciate its full profundity!

      This choral cantata was composed 1599 by Philipp Nicolai. At that time his church congregation and city of Unna ( Westphalia) was stricken with pestilence.

    Le théologien est formidable aussi. Très bonne idée le faire dialoguer avec le musicien.

    Absolutely wonderful and so informative of the poetic and musical inner workings of this amazing cantata. Thank you so much! I will never listen again to this piece of music in the same way. Weeping as I write this.

    merveilleuses ces explications! Très bel humour et vitalité de Rudolf Lutz. Bien, vraiment, qu'il y ait des sous-titres. Entre deux langues, même si on ne les possède pas entièrement ni l'une ni l'autre, on se débrouille pour comprendre, et c'est très sympathique.

    I wonder if this choir always takes a whole rehearsal to delve this deeply into all of the pieces they perform? I wish mine did. I have such an appreciation for how these gentlemen provide a detailed interpretation of the text and an extremely in-depth analysis of the music.

    „Zion hört die Wächter singen“…
    Wow! I felt so excited when I heard the explanation of this cantata!
    I learned to play piano (and it helped me for my two years of German course) with specifically that part, and my heart bounced when I heard it being played in there. WOW! Sounds so wonderful!
    I couldn’t help singing along with the crowd.
    Can’t wait to listen for the full cantata! ❤️

    Прекрасный разбор, маэстро --супер! Исполняли Баха в 90-х, практически наугад. почти без знаний, монография А.Швейцера в русском переводе большая редкость. Единственная книжечка на Украине была "Риторические проемы в музыке Баха" Якова Друскина, да и ту никто не знал. как здорово, что сейчас можно окунуться во весь бэк граунд этой прекрасной музыки!

    Eine sehr schöne Einführung, die ich wieder sehr genossen habe! Auch die Untertitel sind eine gute Neuerung, um Nichtdeutschsprachige an diesen wunderbaren Ausführungen teilhaben zu lassen.
    Aber dürfte ich anregen, dass man in den Untertiteln immer etwas längere Textausschnitte einblendet? So wirkt es meiner Meinung nach ziemlich hektisch und ist auch nicht so angenehm zu lesen. Aber möglicherweise haben Sie Ihre Gründe dazu, das ist natürlich vollkommen in Ordnung!

    I want to thank jsbachfoundation for this excellent workshop. „Wachet auf ruft uns die Stimme“ is my favorite Cantata. As a boy who grew up in the choir of the Aachener Dom, this is part of my heritage. I appreciate the detailed explanations for both, the musical as well as the religious elements. And yes, we need to wake up. Yesterday, presumably a Russian rocket killed 50 life’s in a Ukrainian village. Today the Hamaz attacks Israel and again, innocent people dye. We all need to wake up. We are approaching a dead end.

    Ich finde es sehr, sehr schade, dass der Text der dritten Strophe in den Gesangsbüchern geändert wurde. Das "io" ist für mich ein "Juchitzer", ein fröhliches Jauchzen!

      What are you talking about son? These two Doctors are some of the most knowledgeable and down to earth folks I’ve ever seen, and they have graciously made this beautiful lecture available to all of us, even with English subtitles. And you have the nerve of calling them showoffs?!?!?! That’s the best you could muster? 🙄🙄🙄

      @@paulhwbooth well, the way I understand somebody being called a “show off” has negative connotations, such as being some sort of braggart, hence my response.
      If that was a misunderstanding on my part, which it seems to be, please accept my sincere apologies.
      Professor Lutz seems indeed an extrovert, which is precisely what makes this lecture even more enjoyable 🤗🤗
