Bach is cosmic, much more than music

Bach at his most inspired. The opening choir has this St Matthew Passion quality

J.S.Bach hit the target others did not see.

Brava Elisabeth! Und natürlich das ganze Ensemble. Höchste Klasse!

Great best

I have listened to a few dozen Bach cantata performances by the unsurpassed Bachstiftung, and would have to rank this among the top five.

I sang in the Carmel California Bach Festival chorus/chorale from '81 - mid '90's Never tackled this one . This version absolutely thrills . Bravo !

It's hard to imagine a more stirring and alive performance than this

Everything according to the Will of God. God's will in everything in good and evil times.

I LOVE this group. The best Bach cantata interpretations I have ever heard.

New cantata I've never heard before. Yet again I am deeply impressed by Bach. Another musical treasure box that I stumble upon, delighted to know it, to hear it, to savor it. Always reminds me of the first time I heard a Bach work, Brandenburg Concerto No. 4, First Movement, when I was 14 years old. My ears immediately pricked up like a dog's, totally amazed at this new sound I had never heard (up until then I had heard Mozart, Beethoven, Handel and Vivaldi). I relished hearing Brandenburg Concerto No. 4, and the rest of the Brandenburg Concertos, for years. Then when I was in college, I must've been about 20 years old, I heard my first Bach cantata at a choral concert. Wowie-zowie, I was blown away, with again my ears pricking up like a dog's. LOL. One of life's little pleasures, hearing totally new Bach works...

The melodic richness of Bach’s music is a great wonder. His genius compares to nothing. Thanks for every cantata release you upload.

very enthusiastic performance, everyone is enjoying Bach's rhythms. Thank you from Canada.

Voila presque 10 ans que j'apprécie le Bach Stiftung, et voici une cantate que je n'avais pas encore découverte. Tout le génie du Cantor et la pertinence des choix de M.Lutz sont ici réunis ! Une fois de plus, Merci à tous les interprètes !

Beautiful and briljant again!

How great was Johann Sebastian Bach? Amazing music.

Wunderschön! Eine wirklich hervorragende Aufführung!

Miss Eichmann the Aria Alto, such an exquisite beautiful voice like an Angel. She always gets my heart. Never fails.

Neben Komposition und den Musizierenden ist immer wieder ---> die informative Videoaufnahme, samt zahlreichen guten Schnitten lobend zu erwähnen.

My soul filfull by BACH! My ICON forever! Awesome performance!

Bravo et merci Bachstiftung!

Grand merci !

Magnífica obra, por supuesto. Sublime. Y maravillosa interpretación de todos. Bella puesta en escena. Felicitaciones a la Fundación.

es increible la precisión y nitidez en que escucho los instrumentos de cuerda y su vigor y dinámica amén de las puntuales voces destacables del coro y la dirección impecable de Lutz ! felicidades a todos y AD MAIOREM DEI GLORIAM como se diría en latín ! gracias por compartir !

Magnificently done!

Admirável o vosso respeito e sensibilidade pelas obras de Bach... Fico pasmado logo que vejo estas imagens tão sóbrias desta igreja e a simplicidade, encanto e amor dos intérpretes, do coro e do maestro. É de partir o coração... se fosse invejoso - que não sou - teria inveja de quem pode usufruir destes concertos. Isto é, mesmo, maravilhoso!

The performance Inspires art by its perfection. A portent, perhaps, of the end of this monstrous pandemic.

Gracias🙏

Superb!! Absolutely uplifting. Danke, J.S. Foundation!!

*... die an Ihn glauben feste 🙌*

BRAVO werkelijk schitterend!!

I did not know this cantata. It is wonderful, and so the performance.

Genio...

Great!

Una de mis cantatas preferidas. El ritmo sincopado del coro inicial es avasallante.

Opening Chorus shreds . The descending lines sizzle . Consummate Bach .

Polyphonie jubilatoire du 1er choeur, où les cordes " tricotent"! Excellent tempo

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Increible el nivel de esta musica, saludos a todos los oyentes desde un pais hispano. No podemos entender que dice, pero en algunas ocasiones nos ponen subtitulos.

I'd love to say something amazing about this performance - but there are no words available in the English language.

Alles nur nach Gottes Willen Original German Text English Translation 1. CHOR Alles nur nach Gottes Willen, so bei Lust als Traurigkeit, so bei gut als böser Zeit. Gottes Wille soll mich stillen bei Gewölk und Sonnenschein. Alles nur nach Gottes Willen! Dies soll meine Losung sein. All according to God’s will alone, so in pleasure or sorrow, so in good or bad times. God’s will shall calm me midst clouds or sunshine. All according to God’s will alone! This shall be my saying. 2. REZITATIV; ARIOSO (Sopran) O selger Christ, der allzeit seinen Willen in Gottes Willen senkt, es gehe wie es gehe, bei Wohl und Wehe. Herr, so du willt, so muß sich alles fügen! Herr, so du willt, so kannst du mich vergnügen! Herr, so du willt, verschwindet meine Pein! Herr, so du willt, werd ich gesund und rein! Herr, so du willt, wird Traurigkeit zur Freude! Herr, so du willt, und ich auf Dornen Weide! Herr, so du willt, werd ich einst selig sein! Herr, so du willt, laß mich dies Wort im Glauben fassen und meine Seele stillen! Herr, so du willt, so sterb ich nicht, ob Leib und Leben mich verlassen, wenn mir dein Geist dies Wort ins Herze spricht! O blest Christian, who always immerses his will in God’s will, what will be will be, midst well or woe. Lord, by your will, all must abide! Lord, by your will, so can you delight me! Lord, by your will, my pain vanishes! Lord, by your will, I will be healthy and pure! Lord, by your will, sorrow will turn to joy! Lord, by your will, and I will graze among thorns! Lord, by your will, I will one day be blessed! Lord, by your will, let this word hold me in faith and calm my soul! Lord, by your will, so shall I not die, though body and life desert me, if your Spirit speaks this word in my heart! 3. ARIA (Alt) Mit allem, was ich hab und bin, will ich mich Jesu lassen, kann gleich mein schwacher Geist und Sinn des Höchsten Rat nicht fassen; er führe mich nur immer hin auf Dorn- und Rosenstraßen! With all which I have and am I will abandon myself to Jesus, even if my weak spirit and mind cannot grasp the counsel of the Most High; he will always lead me forward along thorn or rose paths! 4. REZITATIV (Baß) So glaube nun! Dein Heiland saget: Ich wills tun! Er pflegt die Gnadenhand noch willigst auszustrecken, wenn Kreuz und Leiden dich erschrecken, er kennet deine Not und löst dein Kreuzesband. Er stärkt, was schwach, und will das niedre Dach der armen Herzen nicht verschmähen, darunter gnädig einzugehen. So now believe! Your Savior says: I will do it! He still willingly cares to reach out a gracious hand, when cross and suffering afflict you, he knows your distress and loosens the bands of the cross. He strengthens what is weak and mercifully is not ashamed to enter below the humble roof of the feeble heart. 5. ARIA (Sopran) Mein Jesus will es tun, er will dein Kreuz versüßen. Obgleich dein Herze liegt in viel Bekümmernissen, soll es doch sanft und still in seinen Armen ruhn, wenn ihn der Glaube faßt; mein Jesus will es tun! My Jesus will do it, he will sweeten your cross. Even if your heart lies in great tribulation, it shall indeed rest, tenderly and quietly, in his arms, when faith clings to him; my Jesus will do it! 6. CHORAL Was mein Gott will, das g'scheh allzeit, sein Will, der ist der beste, zu helfen den'n er ist bereit, die an ihn glauben feste. Er hilft aus Not, der fromme Gott, und züchtiget mit Maßen. Wer Gott vertraut, fest auf ihn baut, den will er nicht verlassen. Whatever my God wills, may it always occur, his will is for the best, he is poised to help those who firmly believe in him. He helps from distress, this devoted God, and chastises in moderation. Whoever trusts in God and securely builds on him, will he not abandon.

2:13 superb

De 15:07 à 15:17 , dix secondes de bonheur absolu !

How come I have not heard the choral prelude in Bach's top 20 ? But hard to pull off. In particular the legato voice in the choir against percussive jabs. Everyone has to be precisely together to crystalyze the sound. This was close but the effect was not quite there. This was next level, with wider choral dynamic, treating the chorus as though it is a string section.
