So herrliche Musik! Habt ganz vielen Dank fürs Hochladen, so dass wir daran teilhaben können. Und ewigen Dank dem großen Bach, der uns so überreich mit seiner Musik beschenkt hat.
Of all the cantatas, I usually feel that this is my favorite, with its tremendously propulsive opening.
Gott hat alles wohlgemacht. Bach aber auch! Und Lutz auch! Und der Organist! Die Altistin, die Musiker, das ganze Werke einfach göttlich. Vielen Dank!

Göttlich ist "nur" die göttliche Ordnung, die göttliche Quelle. Kein "männlichen Gott." Wirklich ist "nur" die Wirklichkeit. Es geht nicht um die "Wahrheit". Die Wahrheit liegt immer in Auge des Betrachters. Die "Wahrheit" ist also immer relativ. Es geht um die Wirklichkeit. Alles noch ziemlich ge-heim. Leute, ihr meint es gut aber das heißt nicht das ihr wirklich Ahnung habt. Ahnung von Leben und was auf uns zukommt^^ Die schalten selber das System ab weil sie wissen das wir vor einem Riesen Quantensprung stehen: wir-kl-ich-keit.de Die Illusion geht ganz zu Ende. Wer auf Norm-alität wartet, fährt voll gegen den Wand ohne es zu merken. Rettet sich wer kann 💚💜🙏
Another superb performance. The audience should stand up and give a standing ovation!
Mrs. Claude Eichenberger my words will always fail to describe your most beautiful voice, it is like God himself is speaking to me.
I keep watching this over and over again--can't get enough of it!

Oh Norbert, we miss you terribly....
She sings so beautifully it is like heaven.
This cantata was a "project" of mine in college. I didn't do it the justice this mezzo does, but I loved studying and performing it. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for posting.
"The organist stole the show!" I agree and the technical recording was darn near perfect.

Magnifique, merci à Bach, Rudolf Lutz, Claude Eichenberger et à tous les interprètes pour ce grand bonheur !
It is an opening sinfonia such as the one in this cantata that reminds us that Bach was a master organist- he was undoubtedly the soloist at the premiere in 1726. The organist here does the work justice- I think Bach would be proud.

I have been listening to/watching Rudolf Lutz & his Bach Foundation musicians performing Bach's cantatas for a year & a half & very much enjoying them. I like the small band - Bach would in most instances have been restricted to such a small band. I have most of Bach's music on CD, but seeing people sing & play is a much better experience. Thank you Herr Lutz for being able to present these cantatas on KZread. And yes, knowing something about organs, I enjoyed watching organist Norbert Zeilberger's hands bouncing along the keyboard & adding his notes to this beautiful melange.
magnífico organista, prematuramente fallecido (RIP)
Wunderschön, Claude Eichenberger!♥️
No hay músico mas feliz que aquel que interpreta a Bach.
Die Bachstiftung St. Gallen ist wohl eine der besten Bach-Ensembles. Diese herrliche und einfühlsame Aufführung der Kantate 35 ist ein Beweis dafür. Kompliment an alle Ausführenden, besonders an die Alt-Solistin, den Organisten und natürlich an den Dirigenten.

Sie haben recht, die Bachstiftung Sankt Gallen ist eben besser als das Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir und Collegium Vocale Gent. Die minimale aber sehr begabte Besetzung der Bachstiftung entspricht meiner Meinung nach die Anzahl der Künstler, die Bach in seiner Zeit zur Verfügung hatte. Ich bin mich sicher das Bach diese Leistungen sehr geschätzt hätte.

Magnificent performance. Thanks Maestro Lutz and all the performers. Well done.
Just love to watch when they play standing up, and the whole body sings with the music.
the Beauty of her voice shines through and above the rest. The piece was made for the Aria no doubt in my mind. The musical instruments, the organ in particular adds some flavor to it but without the Aria it seems that there is no true expression I think. Eichenberg recitative aria is absolutely so magnificent, exquisite and completes everything.
I listen to this not quite every day but almost every day. Enough said...
her voice calms my soul.
Danke! Auf höchstem Niveau, künstlerisch wie technisch.
My favorite Cantata work.....love my Mr. Organ man ......play on my friend
Magnificent group effort by all who I think have that divine "spark" which makes each one aware of the great gifts God has bestowed on them as collaborators with the great Bach (who was certainly aware of God's "gifting-ness" and the need to respond to that with his very best) but each of them with a similar awareness of what God deserves from them, too. I love their demeanor, as always, the delight all the way through, including the dancing of the string players!
A light mezzo, never heard her before...great.Happy to hear all these beautiful musicians. The organ also, so virtuoso.

It is an oboe da caccia. Bach used it in other cantatas as well, he may even have invented it. Listen to Martin Stadler's explanations regarding BWV 119 (in Swiss German, with English subtitles): kzread.info/dash/bejne/f3yek7OmdKTgfLQ.html

Bachstiftung: Did Bach write this for one alto? Seems like a lot to sing for one person.
Beautiful performance. It's a pity, though, that the organ is so under-recorded; it's a strain to hear him, and he has (to my ears)easily the most interesting part to play. Those first two movements are finger-benders.

I answered my own question. I went to Wikipedia, and it states that BWV 35 was written for one alto. That is a lot to sing for one person.

I don´t agree that the organist stole the show. He gives the rhythm in accordance with the director Rudolf Lutz. In german we would say, er treibt das Orchester etwas vor sich her. ;-)
Is the opening chorus in C# Minor?
English subtitles might help some of us, an excellent performance, and production.

No, I don´t agree that the organist stole the show. He brings, for my opinion, a steadyness into the allegria of the orchestra, and for sure he would not do it without the permission of Rudolf Lutz, the brave conductor. To me, it´s a beautiful timing near to the edges of quickness. I did play big church organs as a young man. But not so virtously... ;-) Sorry for my imperfect english.

karsten, so hat der das glaub ich nicht gemeint mit " he steels the show " es ist einfach selten, dass man die arbeit der organisten so gut hören und sehen kann ...
In den Kommentaren kann man häufig lesen, dass der Organist "die Show gestohlen" hat. Daran kann man gut erkennen wie dominant so eine "obligate" Orgel neben dem eigentlichen Continuo sein kann. Mich wundert, warum Bach dieses Stilmittel, gerade in den geistlichen Kantaten, nicht häufiger eingesetzt hat? Aber vielleicht auch gerade deswegen, weil der Fokus ansonsten zu sehr auf der der Orgel liegt.

I suppose the answer is that Bach liked to experiment with instrumental sounds, and probably didn't like repeating himself much.

C'est une très bonne question que nous entendons souvent. L'orgue de Trogen n'est pas un orgue baroque et est accordé d'une manière totalement différente. Il n'est pas possible de le modifier pour l'adapter à nos interprétations historiques. C'est pourquoi nous utilisons toujours notre propre orgue positif.
