    One of my favourite Bach choruses. Relatively rarely played live at least in Germany, where often only cantatas 1-3 are performed.
    The two singers per voice works very good here. A lot better than in the opening chorus of cantata 1 (jauchzet frohlocket).
    BTW, as a native speaker I can say: your pronunciation is spot on. I just find some (not all) of the final Ts too exaggerated, but that's more a question of personal taste.
    Probably the best live performance of this specific piece of music that I have heard.
    Personal favourite of Christmas Oratorio remains Gardiner, but of course that's a studio recording.

  • @deciopereiradossantos7029

    Está bom. O que, para mim, não ficou muito bem, foi a dinâmica dos tenores: em muitos momentos eles cantavam forte e ficavam por cima de outra voz que estava com o "motivo" mais importante, principalmente nas entradas e retomadas.

      I agree- it is very pretentious in some ways. The first soprano and female altos virtue signalling style off the copy is so distracting. They both look ridiculously tense and the stiff necked, lighthouse- like swivelling looks ridiculous. The basses manage it with less pretence- best of all is the tenor section who communicate beautifully even though on copy. It’s all very well to use the gimmick of no scores to give the impression of communcating better with the audience but REALLY? ! Does it have to look so ridiculously self aware? 🤢🤮
