Striking how much positive and vital music was produced in times when the life expectancy was 35 years and a simple cold could kill you. Now we live in luxury and comfort and music has degenerated to brutal (pop) or chaotic(serialist) noise, invoking anguish and boredom.

Greetings from Perth Western Australia. I am recovering from cancer over the last 3 years. Music by jsb has played a big part on the slow road to recovery. Conductor Lutz and the whole orchestra and choirs are a something to cherish each day.

God bess you, John! I pray you have made it - in this world or in the next where there will be no illness and no suffering any more!

Die Musik ist grandios, aber die Worte auch. Wenn Menschen Gott mehr loben und lieben, haben wir eine bessere Welt wie die Musik zeigt...

Am I the only one who has focused on the soprano's name??? Miriam "Feuersinger". With a name like that, you just know she was born to be a singer -- "with fire"!!! You all are wonderful!!! Much love from Washington DC, in the time of pandemic.

Thank you. I have this type of music on all day at work. (I work with computers). It adds serenity and peace to a mad noisy world.

Ein unglaublich tolles Geigensolo von Renate Steinmann in der Nr. 2!

Ja, das ist es. Allerdings wäre es genauso unglaublich toll, wenn das Tempo nicht (wie heutzutage leider üblich) dermaßen gehetzt wäre... Gerade Bachs hochkomplexe Polyphonie verträgt sich überhaupt nicht mit dieser Mode, quasi olympische Geschwindigkeitsrekorde erreichen zu wollen.

The alto aria makes my tears run. So beautiful

In my opinion, one of the most beautiful Bach's Kantaten. Magnificent.

I often find that the most beautiful is the one I happen to be listening to, but, of course, some are more magnificent than others. Ranging from excellent to unimaginably wonderful.

Eine der schönsten Coralkantaten von JSB, danke eine Zu Herzen gehende Interpretation. Danke für diese Aufführung!

Es ist nicht nur die Musik von Bach, es ist die Essenz eines schönen Landes, genannt Deutschland, das Deutschland lebt und den großen Bach, Sohn dieser Länder, gelebt hat.

Too beautiful for words!! One of the greatest Lutheran hymns taken to a whole new level.

Bach makes my heart grow..

Wie wunderschön! Dankeschön.😊❤ 16:47

It’s impossible to remain passive when listening to Bach. You are moved and engaged almost immediately by his music, such is his genius.

What an awesome way to start a Sunday or indeed any day.

Es war wieder ein Genuss

What a wonderful way to end it; The Corale.

Как вы все прекрасны! Прекрасна музыка, прекрасно но исполнение, Ваши лица, и лица ваших прихожан.

Extraordinario coro

My favorite composer interpreted at highest level,fantastic and peaceful! My empty heart is filling with this pure energy. Thank you!

Wunderbar!

One of the composition of the legend Bach, who is my favorite composer, and it was an amazing work. Excellent cantata, excellent chorus, excellent orchestra, excellent soloists and excellent conductor.....Thanks for uploading.

BRAVO BRAVÍSSIMO 👋👋👋👋 MUITO LINDO ESPETACULAR

Mogę tylko powiedzieć,że PIĘKNY UTWÓR jak cała muzyka WIELKIEGO BACHA

Just Wonderful.

Otra obra maestra del gran Bach!!

Wonderful ensemble work - bravos! ❤️🎼🎵👏🇮🇪☘️

Splendides la musique et le Choeur!

Música para la alegría de las personas. Mil gracias por esta magnífica interpretación, llena de vida

Eigentlich wollte ich nur hineinhören und dann hab ich es doch ganz gehört ... falsch: genossen. Ich konnte nicht abschalten. Danke für den Genuß

Magnifica

Greetings from Papua New Guinea. This is one of my favourite Bach Canata's. In Britain we know the main theme of each of the movements and the final choral as a hymn - "Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of Creation". This is indeed yet another wonderful performance by the J.S. Bach Foundation. Let me know when you are due to perform Cantata 50. I would sincerely love to be able to attend a live performance.

This choir and orchestra instantly drew me in. They are masters at what they are doing, but just as importantly their love for music is apparent and infectious.

Bravíssimo!!!

Thanks for the JSB Fundation for this amazing performance. All the best from Brazil.

Es kann nicht besser Dieseits🙌

Such happy, joyous music. So uplifting for the spirit (soul) in these times. We have just been through the most devastating floods in the history of white settlement in eastern Australia, and the local people say there is a flood to come (because it has happened before) even bigger than what our city has experienced so far. We have been here a little over 200 years, so what would we know?

Música para aquietar os corações

De nouveau un chef d'oeuvre de la Bach Foundation ! Merci de tout coeur. Ces variations sur ce célèbre choral - un des plus beaux et joyeux que Bach a utilisé - sont apparemment toutes simples, utilisant si peu d'instruments, mais elles sont sublimes. Je pense que jamais on n'ira jusqu'au bout du génie du Kantor !

Este coro inicial é realmente divino, épico do barroco! Uma pérola! Difícil de se cantar com um bom fraseamento.

סוליסטים ומקהלה נפלאים !!!!!!!

This is my first time hearing this cantata. Once again, Bach gives me goose pimples in the first one minute of his opening sequence. How the hell does he keep doing this??? It's remarkable! I've heard so many of his cantatas that I expect roughly the same evolution of a Bach opening. And this predictable sequence is fulfilled for the most part. But then the notes go somewhere totally unexpected, and you're like, "what? " But it's a beautiful, awe-inspiring "what?" This man had an unfathomable ability to make the old and predictable so new and refreshing. The only other major artists I know who do this consistently, like clockwork, are Shakespeare and Rembrandt. Bach definitely ranks up there in these rarefied echelons within the pantheon of music!

No No No! The words are NOT How the hell....etc. They should be "how did heaven guide Bach to his sublime level". For God given is J.S. Bach's gift to us all. I wish I knew who said the words but a man once said. "If you listen to the music of Beethoven, you'll learn all there is to know about Beethoven. If you listen to the Music of Mozart, you'll learn all there is to know about humanity. If you listen to the music of Bach, you'll learn all there is to know about God". I wish I had first said that statement.

Schon der Coral ist in seiner Grundanlage festlich, die Kantate von JSB setzt noch ein Vielfaches drauf. Danke, lieber Rudof Lutz für diese Interpretation, sie kann uns helfen in dieser Zeit uns aufzumuntern und zu dem Wesentichen des Lebens zurückzufinden.

Smuk salmesang og dejlig musik.....

hervorragend, wie alles, was von ihnen gespielt und gesungen wird!

Es una versión excelsa

Was Herr Lutz angreift wird zu Gold ... immer wieder so begeistert!

so gorgeous!

Música linda y celestial herencia de nuestras reforma Luterana

@@Brap-pl2me This situation is similar to the massive addiction to drugs. Everyone knows it is destructive but still they can't resist it. Pop music is tightly connected to drug abuse. Most pop "stars" promote drug abuse and boast about their own addiction. The list is endless: Hendrix, Cobain, Faithfull, Winehouse etc .etc.

What is must have been like to be in Bach's choir, or church orchestra. I know his progressive music often drove the church elders insane, but the performers must have thought of Bach as some kind of Orpheus.

Actually the very scant evidence we have suggests that Bach's music was generally appreciated by the parishioners and elders. While there's evidence of friction between Bach and the Leipzig authorities, none of it seems to have involved the quality or nature of the music. Which makes sense given that they let him perform his music every week for 27 years -- and his immediate successor performed his chorale cantatas like this one. It's mostly a romantic-era notion that nobody liked or cared about his music.

La violinista es correcta, pero no me entusiasma. En las notas agudas el sonido se le hace metálico. Mi opinión es que tendría que estudiar más lento y con afinador, el sonido global de la orquesta me gusta, es en los solos instrumentales donde se oyen cosas raras

Raus mit der ekelhaften Werbung!

Daran kann der Kanalbetreiber - in diesem Fall die Bachstiftung - nichts ändern. Das muss schon jeder Benutzer/ Seher selber machen. Einfach mal nach "youtube werbung blocken" googeln.

Die Musik ist wunderschön. Auf höchsten Niveau. Für mich wirkt halt alles etwas steril, zumal die Musiker und auch die Zuhörer sehr ernst wirken. Dabei müsste die Musik doch freude auslösen! Mir fehlt da der freudige spirit!! Sorry.

Curious that you say this, because in general the Bach Stiftung is very engaged and joyful. I have to admit that this particular performance doesn't quite rise to the level of their very best work, however. I feel guilty even saying that. It's like saying one beautiful, perfect rose is not as beautiful as a perfect lily. All are wondrous and amazingly well done. Bravi.
