Bach - Easter Oratorio: Kommt, eilet und laufet BWV 249 - Van Veldhoven | Netherlands Bach Society
Музыка
The Netherlands Bach Society performs 'Kommt, eilet und laufet' for All of Bach. This Oster-Oratorium (Easter oratorio) was first performed on Easter Sunday in 1725. Two days earlier, the congregation in Leipzig had listened to the St John Passion, just as in 1724. The closing chorus ‘Ruht wohl, ihr heiligen Gebeine’ sent them on their way home to celebrate Holy Saturday. And then, on Sunday morning, the church resounded with the huge contrast of a Sinfonia with leading roles for three trumpets and timpani. Before the singers get going, Bach seems to recall Jesus’s death with a melancholy Adagio in B minor for solo traverso and strings.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on May 23th 2017 at the Walloon Church, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

In spite of the hardships, challenges, bitterness, trials and suffering of many in the 17th and 18th Centuries, Bach offered a glorious glimpse into Heaven on so many occasions which thrill us over three hundred years later. Given the insanity, pathetic mediocrity and overt silliness in which we find ourselves in the 21st Century, we can find a respite for our weary souls and minds through Bach and be uplifted with the glorious hope of eternity with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I am absolutely convinced that Bach's works will be part of the heavenly repertoire for eternity.

Bach is so much better than I ever knew.
My wife and I will never forget our beloved high school chem teacher, Preston Q. Boomer, who taught us to love Baroque music. He built his own very impressive 2500 pipe organ with a "chapel" to put it in, on his property. He would play Purcell's Trumpet Voluntary while we brass musicians from high school band would accompany him. We'll never forget that experience up at his place in the mountains of Bonny Doon, CA back in the early '60's. Decade after decade Preston would invite his students up for concerts and parties. Wonderful guy.

When we listen to their wonderful performance of this masterpiece, Bach's time is connected to the present and the present in which we live in is connected toBach's time, and we can communicate with Bach
I discovered this great work during Holy Week and Easter of 1960 when I was in the military stationed at Fort Lewis, WA. When I was separated and returned home to Maryland that June, one of the first things I did was go to a music store and get an LP of the work. The cover had both the German and an English translation. Sadly, I let that LP get away from me over the years. But I love the work, especially the chorus "Kommt, eilet und laufet:" where Mary Magdalene and another Mary go to Jesus' tomb only to find it empty. And they run to Peter and the other disciples. Praise be to God and God's son, Jesus our Savior.

Last week I was at the concert hall in Edmonton, Alberta listening to the orchestra and chorus Playing Mendelsohn Elijah. I sang this oratorio my self and when the last notes died in the church I cried and felt the power of God deep in my soul, I felt so much closer to our Heavenly Father, That feeling never left me. The person that sat beside me commented on my involvement as I was lip singing every part that I still knew from Late 1995 when I sang Elijah.

The adagio is truly a most beautiful piece. 300 years old yet so contemporary especially the woodwind portion, which sounds like a a piece that could be enjoyed while relaxing in a jazz club. Bach was such a genius it boggles the musical mind. BTW, I love the expressions of the musicians and vocalists during this piece... So heavenly.

CAPTIVATING & PRISTINE PERFORMANCE! The video and sound are top quality. There is great musicianship wealth here: The prelude with the trumpets and orchestra gives the solemn aspect, the succession of upward and downward phrasing in the music is so moving, a contrast of texture, pace, volume, sparkle & pristine soloist voices, instrumental palette, rich melodic resonance, the chemistry between the performers and the director was excellent, both subordinating themselves to the music. The closing of the Oratorio in 'Preis und Dank with the Choir, trumpets, wind instruments and orchestra gives a GLORIOUS conclusion! Show less
amazing martin root
Pohlazení pro duši. Pěkný zvuk a také povedené video. / Prachtig.
A couple thoughts. First, it is very clear to me that this wondrous process of recording all the works of Bach is so much more than performance. I love watching the performers, because I believe what is evident is their very "tasting" of all they are encountering in this wondrous music (including the texts, of course). Second, and I realize this is a very personal perspective, but as a Christian and a Lutheran, it thrills me to know that in all Bach's works, especially those given to sacred proclamation, there is a heart beating in the composer who wanted his hearers to know the pulsing reality of God come in the flesh. May I say, I pray that for all these marvelous musicians and all who hear them. Blessed Easter!
Bach's works are blessings made music!
Excellent..... Roaring singers, gallopping instrumentalists and vibrant conductor all paying tribute to the Kappelmeister JSB
Just a brilliant performance as always from Netherlands Bach Society brings us closer to heaven. please keep up your excellent performances. of Bachs great works .
There is always the Bach Song I haven't heard before and I heard countless hours > 100h.
Une interprétation *brillante* par des instrumentistes de talent et des chanteurs animés d'enthousiasme autant que de sensibilité. Un grand bravo !
I have been reading a bio of the life of Bach today and to then tune in to one of his many great works is sublime. It is incredible that we can still enjoy the blessings of this modest genius around 300 years later. This Society is to be commended for their faithfulness to his works and maintaining the high standards required by the respective compositions. Ernie Marshall
Really inspiring performance! Maria Keohane is the very highlight among the soloists.
