Soli Deo Gloria!

The beauty of this Kantata is out of this world , and unrivaled, and indescribable, and off the charts

Just discovered Zimmermann Band...and...Wow!

The most red-haired rendition ever.

Interpretazione meravigliosa tra le più belle se non la più bella da me ascoltate, siete fantastici. Grazie infinite

Wundervolle Bassstimme 😍 Sehr schöne Interpretation. Trotz der Leichtigkeit, da ich die Bach-Interpretationen von Karl Richter sehr schätze. Hat mir große Freude bereitet.

Superbe interprétation.

I've heard many recordings of this cantata, this one is certainly one of the best. Transparent, beautiful singing and playing, thanks to the small ensemble a nice intimate atmosphere.

Beautiful performance; marvellous singers and musicians. Must find more about this great ensemble.

Petit ensemble d’une qualité exceptionnelle !!!😮❤

Technically superb. Artistically felt and attuned to the almost medieval roots of the composition. Thank you!

an outstanding performance of the cantata. The best I have heard!

Maravilloso ⭐️ Oír esta cantata , te acerca a la divinidad. Haberla cantado, llena el espíritu . Bach es inmortal.

Okay, I may have just become a Jonathan Hanley superfan. Beautiful, clear timbre. Solid, easy low notes (not so common for a tenor!) as well as high ones. Expressive phrasing, committed delivery, great clarity of line in the choruses. Excellent trill. And absolutely terrific diction. Wow.

Bravi tutti! Very fine singing and playing. 'Es war ein wunderlicher Krieg' comes off particularly well here.

hey, just a random chorus member doing his homework here. was here for "es war ein wunderlicher Krieg", and thought what you've accomplished with only 4 singers was AMAZING! that song inherently has such little breathing room amidst that many Germans lyrics that need every consonant to be taken care of, and they were delivered perfectly!

Einfach perfekt!

Thank you for contribution to Bach's Oeuvre. Well performed in solo Besetzung. Doesn't matter how many impressions it made. Great work!

Thank you all very much for your hard work to present this Easter gift to the world under pandemic conditions. Loved the voices, the diction, the instruments, the translated subtitles, the setting, and the camera and recording work. More people need to hear this video, so I'll be sharing it. Soli Deo gloria!

REALLY ! This should have had at least a million views !! O u t s t a n d i n g 🌹♥️

Christ lag in Todesbanden, für unsere Sünd gegeben, der ist wieder entstanden und hat uns bracht das Leben. Des wir wollen fröhlich sein und singen Halleluja.Halleluja !!!!!!!!! Um das geht's!!!!!!!

Que hermosas las catedrales y capillas de europa.

The profound of Bach's music is equal to the infinite expanse of the universe

What a fantastic bass !

Magnifique interprétation !

4 solistes au lieu du chœur , c’est surprenant au 1er abord, mais c’est très beau ; leurs timbres sont clairement identifiées ; de même pour les instruments (viole, théorbe). Le résultat est magnifique

Love the Bass. Hope you have a brilliant career. You're so worth it.

A revelation ... I have a feeling of how it may have sounded in Bach's time. The singers are outstanding, so attune to each other and so transparent, the blend is outstanding. Kudos aplenty to all the artists. BRAVO!

Ideal music for COVID times! Real memento Mori consideration!

Maravilhosa interpretação.

St Gabriel's in Pimlico, London, the church is beautiful, along with this inspired rendition of Luther's handiwork.

Hello Stuart! (Remember Borealis Choir and Hans Gál?) Good to hear you singing in such a beautiful Bach cantata, and a stunning performance by all involved, thank you!

Excellent!

Maravillosos😍

Good job Chris, Ollie, Tristram and co :)

My go-to for BWV 4…

Absolutely beautiful the ensemble and the voices BUT the accelerare in the Halleluja of the first choir is not necessary. I had the chance of doing this cantata with Thomaskantor herr Hans-Joachim Rotzsch and he didn't increased the tempo signifincantly; he just let him go with the natural rythim of the semiquavers in the score. Notwithstanding the aforementioned, I think this is one of the most beautiful verisions of this cantata I´ve ever heard. Congrats!!!!

Other than the parallel octaves in the second movement, this performance is absolutely wonderful.

Delivered with clarity and gusto. Brave tempi, especially on the duet but it works very well.

I love continuo in alto & soprano versus (theorbo impro wow!) and slow-ish tempo in Basso versus giving it major gravitas. Middle chorus a little rushed (for me) at the expense of stability and “Die Schrift hat verkündet das” coming into its own. Appreciate times are tight but really missed the colla parte cornets and sackbuts in choral movements. Would love details on cello, great solid resonant sound. Great effort overall, excellent voices and instrument playing!

I see they placed the singers in front as was done in Bach's time.

pas mal du tout

BWV-4 polish text: Chrystus leżał w mocy śmierci za nasze grzechy wydany, Ten też zaś mocny, wstał zmartwych, i przyniosł nam żywot wieczny, ztąd się wszyseh weselmy, Boga chwaląc wdzięczni bądźmy, śpiewając Hallelujah, Hallelujah! Christ lag in Todesbanden Für unsre Sünd gegeben, Er ist wieder erstanden Und hat uns bracht das Leben; Des wir sollen fröhlich sein, Gott loben und ihm dankbar sein Und singen halleluja, Halleluja! .s

DIOS bendiga la memoria de nuestro maestro Bach, cuyo legado musical es eterno, las cantatas son su principal obra yá que nos comunican directamente con el cielo, DIOS bendiga a mis hermanos y amigos europeos, soy colombiano, músico, compositor y escuchando desde mi infancia la 🎶 de BACH, DIOS me inspira en estilo barroco, que es el mas hermoso. Mi canal es: Ricky y giovy son de vida.❤❤❤😊😊😊🎶🎶🎶

I really like the bass soloist. I'm glad he sings the low E2 (one ledger line below the bass staff). I as a bass singer myself cringe when I hear some baritone alter the music so he doesn't sing the low E.

La cantata è sublime comunque, .ma perché omettere tromboni e cornetto?

Bass is bravissimo. Sadly one of the strings in his aria wasn't in tune.

Too fast

Ces masques horribles ne me donnent pas envie de partager !

Lose the masks

Unfortunately the players are wearing silly masks. It must be a modern Catholic church because the crucifix is put off to the side. Suggest listening without watching.
