Aleluya 🎶, es la 1 vez que escucho el himno de Lutero arreglado por BACH. Excelente!!!
Preist den HERRN Jesus Christus! Ein wundervolles Werk! Mit vollster Überzeugung und stolzer Brust. Eines der schönsten Hymnen die ich jemals gehört habe. Ehre Lob und Macht unseren dreimal heiligen Gott. Vater Sohn und Geist amen
Maestro Lutz felicitaciones por su trabajo excelente de publicar las maravillosas cantatas de nuestro maestro Bach 😊😊🎶🎶🙏🙏💖💖, nos conducen directo al CIELO. EL SEÑOR JESUCRISTO LOS BENDIGA y a toda EUROPA. SHALOM AL ISRAEL y al mundo.
Extraordinary! My dad always asks me to play this during our meal time. He says Bach's music brings him back to life.
Simply thankful to be in a world with this miracle.
Best version of the first aria I've ever heard. Mr. Klaus Mertens is at such a next level; the words are clear, the notes are crisp yet it feels so natural like a poetry. Even at more than 70 years old! This will always be my favorite - one of the finest moments in musical performances.
Dorothy Mields has a voice that can make angels cry with joy.
Splendida cantata della maturità piena di Bach, quando ispirazione e esperienza danno il meglio. È una cantata che trasuda gioia e fiducia in ogni parte, in tutte le sfumature della vittoria, della contentezza della vicinanza con Dio. Il duetto raggiunge vertici affettivi insoliti per lo stesso Bach: il senso di profondo benessere del corpo e dello spirito che suscita sia in chi suona e canta, sia in chi ascolta, è più unico che raro
Brillante Interpretation! Erhöhung der Seele: spirituelles Glück in seiner reinsten Form!😇🙏🎆✨
Ária final magnífica. Nós viajamos ouvindo esta música maravilhosa.🤩🤩🤩
Marvellous performance! Dorothee Mields....overwhelming, what a voice!
the *second* movement is one of my favorites in all the cantatas. Non-imitative counterpoint at its best!
Atemberaubend schön... kraftvoll und zugleich tänzerisch, berührend und voller Freude und Zuversicht ... vielen Dank...
Great to hear Klaus Mertens still has such chops even as he’s aged. What a legend
Beautiful cantata!
Extraordinary performance, especially that of mr. Mertens. Thanks a lot.
Opening Chorus takes us to as close n approximation of the heavenly realm as this temporal realm permits .
So impressed by the balance and sensitivity to nuance .
Die Oboe da Caccia ist einfach wunderbar im Klang. Der Oboist spielt sehr empfindsam und hoch musikalisch. Die ganze Kantate zu hören ist ein Hochgenuss. Danke allen Beteiligten und der Bachstiftung 🤗🌺
OkayI found the sheet music, the translation and it's going to take many listenings to absorb this one, magnificent, but right now i want a contra bassoon for Christmas.
Here is the sheet music, which for some reason has never been published in full on this site since its inception... ruclips.net/video/ivcoE7jjSYM/видео.html
I know, I know, about 120th time listening to the Bernard and Terry Wey duet, I find myself falling in love with Plemena's playing. I wish I could be like that on my guitar.
This is probably my favourite Bach cantata, all is perfect in this performance! Great orchestra, choir and amazing singers!!
Je suis entièrement de votre avis !! le summum du contrepoint !
The story of my life in some ways is this cantata
Formidable cantata que expresa la alegría de un pueblo que vive la reforma.
Même si je préfère les cantates plus 'intimistes', j'admire à chaque nouvelle publication, l'enthousiasme et l'engagement de tous ces musiciens !
Spot on ! This is what perfection sounds like!
A spectacular job. I especially love the duet and Mields’ aria.
Thats some BASS POWER in the first movement hahaha
Bach didn't have a contrabassoon in Weimar or Leipzig, but he did have a full-sized organ, not the little _Truhenorgel_ ("chest organ") used in this performance, tuned to around a=465 (which is a 1/2 tone above a=440 and a whole tone above a=415). In this performance, they're using a baroque contrabassoon to compensate for the lack of a full-sized organ tuned to either a=415 or a=465. Presumably, they can't use the organ in this church because it's tuned to a=440. Baroque oboes and bassoons are designed to be tuned to a=415 (1/2 step below a=440) or a=392 (whole tone below a=440). For compatibility with the tuning requirements of baroque wind instruments, they'd have to transpose the organ part down a 1/2 step to play it on an organ tuned to a=440.
Klaus Mertens has an amazing voice.
Danke Bachstifung fur die hochwertig Bachkantaten recordings
Thank you for this release. Another jewel from Bach’s cantata treasury. Deeply satisfying to listen to.
Wow what a memorable performance by all. I even enjoyed the larger choir. Particularly wonderful is the inclusion of the Baroque Double Bassoon which even on my tiny laptop speakers really enhanced the Stringed Bass. It came through really well. Congratulations too to the Oboe da Caccia player for his obbligato - Suberb. Yes another fantastic RUclips recording from Trogen which I will return to many times in the future.
Too bad the contrabassoonist can't hold his breath long enough to play without a break the whole note that's tied across 6-1/2 measures. The part he's playing was meant to be played on an organ, not a contrabassoon.
With good earphones that double bassoon really comes through. The measured notes adds a dimensional pulse.
The bass sounds incredibly a-ma-azing!!!!!
Súper mega bass sound!
I've been waiting for years for the Bachstiftung to post a performance of this greatest of all Lutheran hymns. It was worth the wait! I could listen to the opening movement a hundred times and never fail to marvel at its beauty and power. Thank you!
Schönste Version und Stimmen die ich bisher je gehört habe 🥰
Superbe version, toujours bien filmée. Le 1er air(duo basse-soprane) est célèbre pour la pulsation rythmique de Bach, immédiatement reconnaissable. Viele dank pour ce bonheur !
Une fois de plus merveilleux
Bravo from the USA, and God Bless.
thank you from Switzerland
El bajo grandisimo.
Fun fact about this cantata: it’s the greatest!
Bass bassoon ! Never seen or heard before ! Fantastic sound.
The opening choir is one mighty fortress of sound.
I like it ^^ ;)
I see what you did there, nice
@@lazy_doge 😎
The voice of God.
Disons la musique des anges, c'est déjà pas mal!
Wonderful performance, and the special instruments are intriguing! Thank you!
Fantastico, grazie! Buona domenica!
Great performance 20:24 Duet Alto und Tenor, Terry Wey, Alto und Tenor: Bernhard Berchtold sehr lieblich gesungen und meisterhaft dirigiert.
Wonderful as always, thanks a lot for these recordings!
what an undeserved privilege to witness this - thank be to God🙌
Impresionante presentación: en cada momento la mejor opción. Profundamente gozoso. Mil gracias.
I wish that Bach would have scored a quartet of trombones and a slide trumpet. However, a contrabassoon is a treat in and of itself!
Thank you very much again for another wonderful concert!
Ms Mields & Mr Mertens were born to sing BWV 80. No better pairing exists.
Wonderful the holy music of our Master Bach, Hallelujah!!?
What a beautiful Bach Cantata Concert world class rendition of this work! Danke Veelmals
Brillantissime interprétation ! Exaltation de l'âme : le bonheur spirituel à l'état pur !
Thank you, another jewel from Bach’s cantata treasury. Deeply satisfying to listen to.
Der Text dieser Hymne ist so tief und berührend aber auch so stärkend. Ich liebe diese Hymne
Muchas gracias Bachstiftung...haceis de You Tube un lugar mejor. Excelente produccion audiovisual...sobria, limpia y sin alardes tecnicos, como corresponde.
I especially like the oboe piece in the aria（20:40）and I even bought the score🎵😊🇯🇵
La mejor versión de esta memorable cantata.
Gracias!
Thanks for this wonderful video & music. Truly beautiful singing.
This is J.S.Bach.....summa Humanitas. Deo Soli Gloria .
......well done!
Simply magnificent.
Una grande bendicion, muchas gracias!
Special kudos to the bass soloist who handled those challenging and endless runs with such effortless precision! That is one tough part to pull off so well! (Just checked the name -- Klaus Mertens! Of COURSE he did this so well!)
The addition of the contrabassoon really was an excellent inspiration!
Maravilhosa versão!
Amazing musicianship, congrats to our deal colleagues!
Vielen Dank! Wunderbar.
I know it is not nice to pick favorites, but oh my, this is stunning from the first note to the last note.
Thank you !
As a chorus member, it's nice to see the orchestra standing up for a change. :)
I came for the *taille* in the second chorus, but found the part played on an *oboe da caccia* -- a legitimate substitute. The contrabassoon is a great surprise! 😃
Fine singing and playing all through.
Magnificent!
Dope dominant sharp 9 chord at 10:54. I never realized JS Bach was such a mad lad.
Gratidão !
Amazing ❤️
Excellent!
Incredible!
Fantastic
Lovely!
I read in the comments that Bach did not write that part for the contra bassoon, but I believe that if he knew that gentleman, he would have he would have used him a lot more. Tremendous large and warm tone. Just think of what Bach could have done with a Segovia if he had one.
many thanks for the double bassoon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! who plays it?
Too bad he can't hold his breath long enough to play without a break the whole note that's tied across 6-1/2 measures. The part he's playing was meant to be played on an organ, not a contrabassoon.
Wow
Me.
schön!
Great!
bwv 80! dorothee mields! epic!
Belle voci ❤️
Almighty God! Wordless!
Lovely as usual but a little fast....wow that double bassoon is BIG.....all this trouble for a few notes in the beginning chorus and the final choral!!! Mille mercis du Canada.
This ensemble is using a contrabassoon to compensate for the lack of a full-sized organ tuned to the proper pitch (a=415 or a=465). Bach had no contrabassoon and didn't need one because the venues where his cantatas were performed had full-sized church organs. The only organ this ensemble has is the little _Truhenorgel_ ("chest organ"), which lacks the muscle of a full-sized organ. The church organ in this venue is tuned to a=440, which is incompatible with the tuning of baroque wind instruments.
@@herrickinman9303 ahhh , musicologists, they sure know how to burst your bubble!!!
@@mariod7473 Don't worry about those that try to fly their academics over people. They miss the point and the heart of the performance most of the time.
@@larrydean4433 Ah, the triumph of ignorance. But you missed the point, which is that "all this trouble for a few notes" is to compensate for lack of a full-sized organ tuned to a pitch that's compatible with the tuning requirements of the winds instruments. FYI, a full organ already has the equivalent of a contrabassoon built in (16' bassoon stop).
@@herrickinman9303 Of course the double bassoon was added to pick up the bass, it was still a great touch. It did not seem like it was any trouble for the musician. A wise addition. Arrogance, you proud of that? I play Bach on a classical guitar with modern tuning, oh the blasphemy of it all.
❤
hearing this on the day of the Lutheran reform.
Bon jour, Monsieur Chopin! So am I, on this Reformation Day 31 October, 2022.
Afrikaans-Geneefs 2005:
"God is waarlik toevlug in die nood, 'n rots wat altyd stewig bly staan, al dreig die vyand met die dood, al storm sy leërbendes aan. Laat dit dan tog maar hier buig en beef alles wat ons hier en nou omgeef; laat berge wankel in die see -ons sal nie beef of rugwaarts tree." 🙌
Thanks for posting. You guys are making such beautiful music. If I may, though, these breakneck speeds won't do. The first choral, for example, is a facsimile of battle. It's armies marching, battalions lining up, advancing and retreating strategically. It's the clear-eyed witness of the determination and the terror felt when you are engaged with an enemy that could overcome you at any moment. This vision which the music is meant to convey is muddied away in this rush. Bach is sternly ministering to his flock about how we must be unified and ready and wide-awake in the fight against perdition. All this cannot be conveyed by a whirlwind! You really have to slow down and trust the music more. Really, I think we need to see Bach's coloring as more descriptive than imitative and we must learn to perform it so.
Sit down and shut up.
Never heard of Blitzkrieg? All jokes aside, I like this tempo. In fact I relish diversity in the interpretation of Bach's works. If everybody agreed on the same tempo and expression, and played accordingly, the world would become a sorry place. And Bach's genius manifests itself in the fact that there are so many ways to make his wonderful creations 'work'. And I find Herr Lutz's musical choices always inspiring.
Bach cantatas are fun because you never know when a bent oboe with a huge brass bell is going to make a sudden appearance and steal the show.
So lovely! I have to add...the bass soloist looks like (primatologist) Frans de Waal

Bitte schreiben Sie das Konzertdatum in eine gesonderte Zeile.
Plus j'écoute la musique du grand Bach, et mieux je comprends ce qu'écrit Debussy à son sujet ( Monsieur Croche- Du Goût): " Si nous regardons l'œuvre de J-S Bach, Dieu bienveillant auquel les musiciens devraient adresser une prière avant de se mettre au travail, pour se préserver de la médiocrité, cette œuvre innombrable où l'on retrouve à chaque pas ce que l'on croit être d'hier, depuis la capricieuse arabesque, jusqu'à cette effusion religieuse, pour laquelle nous n'avons rien trouvé de mieux jusqu'ici, on y cherchera en vain une faute de goût."

Great performance, only a minor complaint: why does the bassoon sound so drone-like? It gives the bassline a humming, unpleasant sound...
