Bach - Cantata Die Elenden sollen essen BWV 75 - Kuijken | Netherlands Bach Society

Музыка

Bach’s cantata 'Die Elenden sollen essen', performed by the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach, broke the ice in his new post. At last, his appointment as cantor in Leipzig had been finalised and he had moved with his family from Köthen to Leipzig on 22 May 1723. And his first actual duties as cantor were carried out at the service on Sunday 30 May 1723.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on April 23rd 2016 at the Walloon Church, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB or consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

    I just cannot comprehend the generative genius & contrapuntal complexity of the Sinfonia! Five-note melodic lines repeat a step up in ascending direction, only to compete with each other, cooperate during the chorale theme, and come rambling back more exuberant than ever. Like Mozart's fourth mvt of the Jupiter, or Wagner's Overture to Die Meistersinger, I think this is the apex of Bach's skill in flawless, pulsing polyphony.

    Bach had to know that his listeners would watch with enthusiasm as each “separate” voice (and melody line) would enter the “mass” of sound, and even try to predict the key the entry would take. And that we would also relish how he worked the multi-voice Fugue to end in a major triad. We have become enthusiastic and enthralled participants in his technology of composition. He also varied his rhythm choices, with moments of silence. We would then wonder what key would erupt after the moment of silence. Bach was a master of obligato and had his own decoration of his musical room, with window dressing always interesting, without being overbearing. Sanjosemike

    @Jay Preis Didn't know that. But Bach's audience understood German (of course) and were much more knowledgeable of the Protestant Bible than modern people are. They "knew" the liturgy of the day. Modern audiences have no idea what Bach was having his soloists singing about. Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)

    En la Sinfonía, la melodía conductora para viento (Presente en otros momentos corales de la Cantata, por cierto) no es original de Bach, sino que la compuso años antes Saverius Gastorius para un himno escrito por Rodigast, pero la reelaboración de Bach fue tan impresionante y aportó tantos elementos nuevos que le dio al himno una dimensión absolutamente nueva. Si se escucha la pieza original de Gastorius y se la confronta con la reelaboración de Bach, hay que maravillarse con qué genio el Maestro sabía reelaborar piezas ajenas hasta el punto de reconvertirlas en algo totalmente nuevo y hasta sobrepasando todos los límites de la inspiración musical y de la perfección técnica!!! Increíble. 😥😥😍😍💓💓❤❤

    It's kind of funny in the way that the first two Cantatas BWV 75,and 76 that Bach selected in his first two weeks, both in two parts, much longer than the other Cantatas for the rest of his first season in Leipzig,or for the majority of his remaining Cantatas cycles in Leipzig . This is not an original idea of mine that BWV 75 and 76 was too taxing for the students who had to perform Bach Cantata weekly. So Bach had too subsequently, write shorter Cantatas to be performed, as a rule, not less of a masterpiece,of course.

    Typically, two cantatas were performed: one before the sermon, one after. In the case of the longer 2-part cantatas, the first part was performed before the sermon, the second part after the sermon. The cantatas (and the sermon) were tailored to fit official Lutheran bible readings for the Sunday (or other church day). The cantatas were like a musical sermon. The number of vocal movements was the about same in each part, whether the cantata was in one part or two. Bach did not have to rely on the boys of the Thomas School to perform his cantatas; he also had help from talented university students, some of which were his private students who paid for the lessons by performing in his cantatas. Also, his Leipzig church music was typically performed one voice to a part. The singers who sang the sang the solos (they were called "concertists") also comprised the chorus where they might be doubled by another singer (called a ripienist). This division between concertists and ripienists was quite common in early 18th-century church music.
