Bach Cantata BWV 1 "Wie Schön Leuchtet Der Morgenstern" Conductor- Helmuth Rilling Enjoy listing, if you do please like, comment, subscribe and I will continue to upload, thank you.
Around 5:45 you can hear some of the most passionate religious music ever written. You don’t even have to be a Christian to feel the power of Bach’s love for Jesus. The brass setting the stage, the epic tenor line, the bass growing with “GROSS” and the other voices declaiming “REICH.” This is the music that happens when someone with supreme talent also loves God with extreme fervor.
GD Dyno it's obvious for almost everyone, but let's just reiterate that the first work in the BWV collection definitely doesn't equal the first work he composed.
Russ Davis Obviously it would have been difficult to copy. What you had to understand is that he had tools of composition in his arsenal through which he could write such brilliant music in such a short amount of time.
Hallo. I´m afraid that the order of Cantatas is not cronological. In fact, this BWV 1 belongs to the second cycle of choral Cantatas composed in 1725. Anyway, I agree with you: Bach is great. Thanks for reading. 😃😃😃
The initial choral is unbelievably beautiful and complex. The combination of solo violin and brass horns results in a joyous, surreal atmosphere appropriate for the Morgenstern. I could not believe this was Bach first work. In fact it is not. It was composed 1725 in Leipzig; thus, it is a mature piece. The BWV number one does not mean the first work composed; it means the first cantata registered in the BWV catalog. BWV enumerates all cantatas first (1 to 198) and then the passions and so on. It is confusing but this was the criterium used. At any rate, a superb cantata and the conduction by Rilling as usual impeccable. Thanks for posting.
This is one of my favorite pieces alongside "gott ist mein könig" and "jesu nun geprieset", " lobe den herren" and so on, but i havent listened to them all yet, but i know for sure this masterpiece especially the beginning is unforgetable ❤
1. Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern Voll Gnad und Wahrheit von dem Herrn, Die süße Wurzel Jesse! Du Sohn Davids aus Jakobs Stamm, Mein König und mein Bräutigam, Hast mir mein Herz besessen, Lieblich, Freundlich, Schön und herrlich, groß und ehrlich, reich von Gaben, Hoch und sehr prächtig erhaben. 2. Du wahrer Gottes und Marien Sohn, Du König derer Auserwählten, Wie süß ist uns dies Lebenswort, Nach dem die ersten Väter schon So Jahr' als Tage zählten, Das Gabriel mit Freuden dort In Bethlehem verheißen! O Süßigkeit, o Himmelsbrot, Das weder Grab, Gefahr, noch Tod Aus unsern Herzen reißen. 3. Erfüllet, ihr himmlischen göttlichen Flammen, Die nach euch verlangende gläubige Brust! Die Seelen empfinden die kräftigsten Triebe Der brünstigsten Liebe Und schmecken auf Erden die himmlische Lust. 4. Ein irdscher Glanz, ein leiblich Licht Rührt meine Seele nicht; Ein Freudenschein ist mir von Gott entstanden, Denn ein vollkommnes Gut, Des Heilands Leib und Blut, Ist zur Erquickung da. So muss uns ja Der überreiche Segen, Der uns von Ewigkeit bestimmt Und unser Glaube zu sich nimmt, Zum Dank und Preis bewegen. 5. Unser Mund und Ton der Saiten Sollen dir Für und für Dank und Opfer zubereiten. Herz und Sinnen sind erhoben, Lebenslang Mit Gesang, Großer König, dich zu loben. 6. Wie bin ich doch so herzlich froh, Dass mein Schatz ist das A und O, Der Anfang und das Ende; Er wird mich doch zu seinem Preis Aufnehmen in das Paradeis, Des klopf ich in die Hände. Amen! Amen! Komm, du schöne Freudenkrone, bleib nicht lange, Deiner wart ich mit Verlangen. pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wie_sch%C3%B6n_leuchtet_der_Morgenstern
Herr Bach certainly started as he meant to go on regarding his wonderful Cantatas! Beautiful use of counterpoint, characteristic of this legendary composer.
When I was in college, I was always into orchestral compositions, but since I had the opportunity to sing the recit in Wachet Auf #140 in 1976, I have been enamoured with these cantatas. It's incredible how Bach weaved themes throughout them. I could listen to them everyday til I saw him in heaven. My favorite is #51
I am working my way through all Bach's Cantatas. I was a singer years ago, and particularly enjoyed performing Ich habe genug and Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen. Thank you for giving me the opportunuty to hear all these great works. Such industry from Bach!
Rilling's Bach has captivated me since I first heard his Sony B Minor Mass that I purchased back in September, 1985 ; this is a gem and 5 stars to the soprano and English horn player in one aria.
Bach was pure genius, I love the two solo violins shimmering away (with their semiquaver/16th note configuration) in the opening chorus: quite like the shimmering of the morning star, I guess.
An amazing dynamic introduction! The violin tonality is awe-inspiring, and the french horn instruments join the violin to reinforce the polyphony harmony. When the legato choral joins the orchestra, it blooms into unique sonorous intonation. The soprano with the oboe is a profound and sublime melody. A perfect rendition of the bass singer with the violins resonates harmony. For those agnostic individuals, one feels close to the SUBLIME! The intricacy of Cantata #1 is an inspiring graceful masterpiece.
SPIRITUAL PURITY! The 1st cantata written for Sunday service...out of 198 (?) cantatas followed. For those agnostic individuals, one feels close to the SUBLIME!
BWV 1: I begin my journey as a bored high school student to listen to every single piece that Bach wrote. It will be a long and arduous one, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. My thoughts on the actual piece: Movement 1: It's really nice. I love the occasional use of the choir and the constantly playing polyphony between the strings and double reeds. Also I just adore baroque trumpet. Movement 2: Not quite as good as 1, but nice nonetheless. Just a tad boring though. Movement 3: I love the double reed in the background (I think it's an English horn but IDK). Goes surprisingly well with the soprano. Movement 4: Not my thing Movement 5: A tad uninteresting, but the harpsichord line is nice. Movement 6: Great. Combination of vocal harmony and the trumpet line is awesome. Overall: 8.2/10
I hope you will enjoy the journey and when completed will realize how much you have matured and then with all humility retake the journey and learn what you missed the first time through. Good luck.
Michael Morran oh there’s far more than you’d think. Classical Music is making quite a resurgence in younger generations. This is we don’t JUST like music like this...
On a different note, I commend Helmuth Rilling's tempo markings for this piece. It is fast in comparison to Nikolaus Harnoncourt's more conservative tempo in other recordings. Bach entitled this first piece "Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern" -- How Beautifully Shines the Morning Star -- and composed it (in 1725 in Leipzieg) for the festival of the Annunciation. In many Western cultures the Annunciation (March 25th) marked the first day of the new year. That's a holiday to get your energy flowing and Rilling's tempo justifies doing just that! In fact, this faster energy carries through the whole work and makes it a very spirited piece, brilliant in nature.
@@hungrymikepencetd5686, no not really. I guess you mean the first composer of classical music, as before Monteverdi we had Palestrina, Hildegard of Bingen, and countless others, most of whom are forgotten.
Ich bin sicher, dass Johann Sebastian Bach in Geheimnisse der Mysterien eingeweiht wurde. Deshalb besitzt seine magische Musik mächtige heilkräftige Stärke ! Tepper Michael.
Note that Bach's works are NOT numbered by the date they were composed, but by the date they were cataloged. Bach composed this around 1725, when he was 40. The earliest cantata is generally considered to be BWV 150, although the BWV 4 is an extremely early work as well. Both BWV 150 and BWV 4 are AMAZING! ruclips.net/video/OHas-rtFfhs/видео.htmlsi=ogfA6zUAz8MdvBAp ruclips.net/video/d7Wt02gTwg8/видео.htmlsi=jnwF5o8DfQopSuAu
If you have only listened to this on your tinny laptop speakers, you don't know what you're missing. You need to hear it on nice sound-cancelling headphones.
Anyone that would do that is not going to get far with this music. People that play and make music or "Audiophiles" figure out that there are frequencies that get choked out initially from recording, then from the size and capabilities of the speaker it is playing out of, as well as many other factors work to either highten the experience or choke it out. The best way to experience is obviously live. Really though if you have a decent system in you car or home, it can sound almost just as good as long as the recording is high quality. Really headphones are not the "best" way to listen, just different and they allow you to basicaly inject music into your head at low volume, but using a really good system allows you to crank it up and feel the bass frequencies through your whole body, which you can't get from head phones. It's like listening to dubstep with out any sub doesn't actually make sense... The music just becomes very superficial and stuck being flat sounding with only higher frequencies making all the sound when it's played by a tiny speaker. Head phones can work around this to a degree and add bass back in to the audio, but it's not the bass that is actually in the recording. It's a fake EQ bass.

Anybody who can help, I need to find either a performance/recording of the last song starting at 21:40 (last song) with the soprano solo, especially on brass?
РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД: 0:11 1. Хор (Хорал) О, как прекрасно утренней звезды сияет свет - се исполненье милости и истины от Господа, всеуслаждающего корня Иессеева! О Сын Давидов из Иаковлева рода, мой Царь и мой Жених! Ты моим сердцем овладел, - в любви и радости, державе, красоте, величьи, чести и даров щедротах превозносимый велелепно и преславно! 7:48 2. Речитатив О Боже истинный и Сын Марии, О Царь, избравший нас! Как сладостно нам сие Слово Жизни! О! Наши праотцы его, считая дни и годы, ждали - и с радостию Гавриил (рожденье) Слова в Вифлееме возвестил! О услажденье! о небесный хлеб! тебя ни смертные напасти, ни могила от наших не отнимут душ. 8:56 3. Ария Исполни, о божественный небесный огнь, тебя взыскующие верные сердца! Мы приобщаемся великому стремленью пламенной любви, и на земле премирную вкушаем радость. 13:37 4. Речитатив Сверканье суеты земной, блеск плоти не трогают меня. От Бога мне даётся радость, ибо всесовершенное единственное благо - Тело и Кровь Спасителя - живит нас здесь. Итак, сей изобильной благодатью, от вечности определённой нам и верою воспринятою нашей, подвигнемся к благодаренью и хвале! 14:35 5. Ария Уста всех христиан и звуки струн да будут уготованы всегда, чтобы благодаренья жертву приносить Тебе! Да возвышаются горе сердца наши и разум, чтобы во всём теченье жизни в песнопениях, о Царь великий, прославлять Тебя! 21:31 6. Хорал О, как я радуюсь сердечно: моё богатство - Альфа и Омега, Начало и Конец! Во славу Он Свою меня приимет в рай, к которому я простираю руки. Аминь! Аминь! Гряди же, радости венец прекрасный, не замедли, Тебя с великим я желаньем жду.
Having been born in 1685 and with this having been publicly performed for the first time in 1725, he would have been 40 at the time of this composition's first public performance. Bach died in 1750 at the age of 64.
Not stealing. Composers quoted from their own prior compositions, and other composers' works all the time as was customary back then. That said, neither Buxtehude nor Bach wrote the cantus firmus for Morgenstern.
SHARE - Jorge Urzua Urzua 2 years ago The initial choral is unbelievably beautiful and complex. The combination of solo violin and brass horns results in a joyous, surreal atmosphere appropriate for the Morgenstern. I could not believe this was Bach first work. In fact, it is not. It was composed in 1725 in Leipzig; thus, it is a mature piece. The BWV number one does not mean the first work composed; it means the first cantata registered in the BWV catalogue. BWV enumerates all cantatas first (1 to 198) and then the passions and so on. It is confusing but this was the criterium used. At any rate, a superb cantata and the conduction by Rilling as usual impeccable. Thanks for posting.

Today I resolved to a different Bach cantata every day. I start with BWV 1.....Perfection.
I love J.S. Bach music with all of my heart.
Bach knew how to properly use the oboe. I love his everything he's done with the instrument.

He knows how to properly use every instrument. :)
There aren't any oboes in the piece. Bach uses two English Horns
@@charterwestmusic6009 Sorry you can't clearly hear oboes in the piece.
@@kel2580 if you look at the score it clearly shows English Horns
If this was indeed his first Cantata, he certainly started at the top!

Bach first work was a set of chorale variations, composed when he was six months old.
1.
Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern
Voll Gnad und Wahrheit von dem Herrn,
Die süße Wurzel Jesse!
Du Sohn Davids aus Jakobs Stamm,
Mein König und mein Bräutigam,
Hast mir mein Herz besessen,
Lieblich,
Freundlich,
Schön und herrlich, groß und ehrlich,
reich von Gaben,
Hoch und sehr prächtig erhaben.
2.
Du wahrer Gottes und Marien Sohn,
Du König derer Auserwählten,
Wie süß ist uns dies Lebenswort,
Nach dem die ersten Väter schon
So Jahr' als Tage zählten,
Das Gabriel mit Freuden dort
In Bethlehem verheißen!
O Süßigkeit, o Himmelsbrot,
Das weder Grab, Gefahr, noch Tod
Aus unsern Herzen reißen.
3.
Erfüllet, ihr himmlischen göttlichen Flammen,
Die nach euch verlangende gläubige Brust!
Die Seelen empfinden die kräftigsten Triebe
Der brünstigsten Liebe
Und schmecken auf Erden die himmlische Lust.
4.
Ein irdscher Glanz, ein leiblich Licht
Rührt meine Seele nicht;
Ein Freudenschein ist mir von Gott entstanden,
Denn ein vollkommnes Gut,
Des Heilands Leib und Blut,
Ist zur Erquickung da.
So muss uns ja
Der überreiche Segen,
Der uns von Ewigkeit bestimmt
Und unser Glaube zu sich nimmt,
Zum Dank und Preis bewegen.
5.
Unser Mund und Ton der Saiten
Sollen dir
Für und für
Dank und Opfer zubereiten.
Herz und Sinnen sind erhoben,
Lebenslang
Mit Gesang,
Großer König, dich zu loben.
6.
Wie bin ich doch so herzlich froh,
Dass mein Schatz ist das A und O,
Der Anfang und das Ende;
Er wird mich doch zu seinem Preis
Aufnehmen in das Paradeis,
Des klopf ich in die Hände.
Amen!
Amen!
Komm, du schöne Freudenkrone, bleib nicht lange,
Deiner wart ich mit Verlangen.

This is his first music. After that composition, he made more 1096. He was a monster! The biggest!

O Süßigkeit, o Himmelsbrot,
Das weder Grab, Gefahr, noch Tod
Aus unsern Herzen reißen.
3.
Erfüllet, ihr himmlischen göttlichen Flammen,
Die nach euch verlangende gläubige Brust!
Die Seelen empfinden die kräftigsten Triebe
Der brünstigsten Liebe
Und schmecken auf Erden die himmlische Lust.
4.
Ein irdscher Glanz, ein leiblich Licht
Rührt meine Seele nicht;
Ein Freudenschein ist mir von Gott entstanden,
Denn ein vollkommnes Gut,
Des Heilands Leib und Blut,
Ist zur Erquickung da.
So muss uns ja
Der überreiche Segen,
Der uns von Ewigkeit bestimmt
Und unser Glaube zu sich nimmt,
Zum Dank und Preis bewegen.
5.
Unser Mund und Ton der Saiten
Sollen dir
Für und für
Dank und Opfer zubereiten.
Herz und Sinnen sind erhoben,
Lebenslang
Mit Gesang,
Großer König, dich zu loben.
6.
Wie bin ich doch so herzlich froh,
Dass mein Schatz ist das A und O,
Der Anfang und das Ende;
Er wird mich doch zu seinem Preis
Aufnehmen in das Paradeis,
Des klopf ich in die Hände.
Amen!
Amen!
Komm, du schöne Freudenkrone, bleib nicht lange,
Deiner wart ich mit Verlangen.

Thanks!

I wish this channel had completed its project.
Anybody who can help, I need to find either a performance/recording of the last song starting at 21:40 (last song) with the soprano solo, especially on brass?
РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД:
0:11
1. Хор (Хорал)
О, как прекрасно утренней звезды сияет свет -
се исполненье милости и истины от Господа,
всеуслаждающего корня Иессеева!
О Сын Давидов из Иаковлева рода,
мой Царь и мой Жених!
Ты моим сердцем овладел, -
в любви
и радости,
державе, красоте, величьи, чести и даров
щедротах
превозносимый велелепно и преславно!
7:48
2. Речитатив
О Боже истинный и Сын Марии,
О Царь, избравший нас!
Как сладостно нам сие Слово Жизни!
О! Наши праотцы его,
считая дни и годы, ждали -
и с радостию Гавриил
(рожденье) Слова в Вифлееме возвестил!
О услажденье! о небесный хлеб!
тебя ни смертные напасти, ни могила
от наших не отнимут душ.
8:56
3. Ария
Исполни, о божественный небесный огнь,
тебя взыскующие верные сердца!
Мы приобщаемся великому стремленью
пламенной любви,
и на земле премирную вкушаем радость.
13:37
4. Речитатив
Сверканье суеты земной, блеск плоти
не трогают меня.
От Бога мне даётся радость,
ибо всесовершенное единственное благо -
Тело и Кровь Спасителя -
живит нас здесь.
Итак, сей
изобильной благодатью,
от вечности определённой нам
и верою воспринятою нашей,
подвигнемся к благодаренью и хвале!
14:35
5. Ария
Уста всех христиан и звуки струн
да будут уготованы
всегда,
чтобы благодаренья жертву приносить Тебе!
Да возвышаются горе сердца наши и разум,
чтобы во всём теченье жизни
в песнопениях,
о Царь великий, прославлять Тебя!
21:31
6. Хорал
О, как я радуюсь сердечно:
моё богатство - Альфа и Омега,
Начало и Конец!
Во славу Он Свою меня
приимет в рай,
к которому я простираю руки.
Аминь!
Аминь!
Гряди же, радости венец прекрасный,
не замедли,
Тебя с великим я желаньем жду.
This could well have been the last one.
Como dijo Casals: ´´ Primero fue Bach, despues todos los demas musicos¨
JSB was 40 when he wrote this!
Can someone please tell what to search in spotify for this??
Balsam for sjelen :-)

I would love to know who the violinist is in this recording?
If this was his *first* work then how did he obtain this skill in the first place ?
Rustman it's just his first catalogued composition.
It is for the style, too.Barroque music was complex, yet Bach was more advanced than his collegues like Mozart or Liszt in their period.
Smuk kantate med smuk skønsang hele vejen igennem
How old was he?
Having been born in 1685 and with this having been publicly performed for the first time in 1725, he would have been 40 at the time of this composition's first public performance. Bach died in 1750 at the age of 64.
I started with his fugues
Bachtrro !!!
A Bach choral is not portamento, but legato!
just wondering how's bwv 1 sounds.
🇸🇾🌹
8:10
so Bach composed bwv1 while going to kindergarden 🙃
Something does not work well, I don't hear music (?)
This a first bach piece?
no
22:49 Totally stolen from last bars of Buxtehude's BuxWV 223 _Wie schon leuchtet der Morgenstern_.
But that's just a descending scale, I'm sure it's been written in many compositions, Bach, Buxtehude and others
Not stealing. Composers quoted from their own prior compositions, and other composers' works all the time as was customary back then. That said, neither Buxtehude nor Bach wrote the cantus firmus for Morgenstern.
I'm reading everyone's comments in a posh English accent
Funny, I'm hearing the sophisticated cold mannerisms of Hannibal Lecter.
Первое по списку произведение посвященно алишеру моргентштерну в будущее...
Why did *Bach* never have any money? ... Because he was always *Baroque.* 🎻
Why did they bury *Bach* with an eraser? ... So he could *decompose.* 🤭
バッハ 教会カンタータ1
Y
se supone que es la primera obra de Bach.
no es la primera, el número es "1" pero no es sus obra primera. . .

The initial choral is unbelievably beautiful and complex. The combination of solo violin and brass horns results in a joyous, surreal atmosphere appropriate for the Morgenstern. I could not believe this was Bach first work. In fact, it is not. It was composed in 1725 in Leipzig; thus, it is a mature piece. The BWV number one does not mean the first work composed; it means the first cantata registered in the BWV catalogue. BWV enumerates all cantatas first (1 to 198) and then the passions and so on. It is confusing but this was the criterium used. At any rate, a superb cantata and the conduction by Rilling as usual impeccable. Thanks for posting.
Some movements sound very operatic. Like if it were a Rossini opera. Or idk. Maybe its just me?
