Dres den, eine Bach-Stadt? Nein - mit Blick auf die Person Johann Sebastian Bachs, der sich vergeblich um ein Engagement am Hofe bewarb. Ja - als geistige Heimat zahlreicher Künstler von internationalem Rang, in deren Schaffen Bach ein permanenter Bezugspunkt ist.Diese Erfahrungen mit Bach bilden den Ausgangspunkt der Beiträge von Musikern und Wissenschaftlern, die in Dresden arbeiten, von der lokalen Tradition geprägt sind, sie reflektieren und weitergeben. Fast beiläufig entsteht ein reiches Spektrum von neuen und unkonventionellen Zugängen zu Bach: ein reiches Kapitel der Rezeption seiner Werke und ein Stück Musikgeschichte der sächsischen Hauptstadt.

Although all that survives of Bach's “St. Mark Passion” is Picander's libretto, virtually all the arias and choruses can be reconstructed from “parody” versions. The original recitatives and turbae , however, are probably lost forever. Rather than rewriting these numbers “in Bachs's style”, Gomme has added passages from Reinhard Keiser's setting of the Passion (a setting highly esteemed by Bach, who performed it several times), thereby allowing this lost work to be performed in its entirety. A detailed preface sheds further light on this unique reconstruction based on the New Bach Edition.

Der Bach-Kommentar behandelt in vier umfangreichen Bänden das gesamte geistliche Vokalwerk Johann Sebastian Bachs und führt dabei theologische Deutung und den aktuellen Stand musikwissenschaftlicher Forschung zusammen. Für diese theologisch-musikwissensc haftliche Kommentierung wurden vor allem aus der zeitgenössischen Theologie der von Bach vertonten Texte wichtige Quellentexte herangezogen und in längeren Auszügen abgedruckt: neben der Bibelübersetzung Luthers zum Beispiel die »Olearius-Bibel« und sogenannte »Leit-Gesangbücher«. Dadurch ist es gelungen, neue Deutungsansätze zu entwickeln und das geistliche Vokalwerk Bachs – zum Beispiel auch liturgisch und kirchenjahresgemäß – genauer einzuordnen.

Band III umfasst neben den Passionen Bachs die Fest- und Begräbniskantaten sowie Kantaten ohne erkennbare Bestimmung. Der abschließende Band IV wird die Kommentare zu Bachs Messe-Kompositionen, Magnificat und Motetten sowie verschiedene Register zu allen vier Bänden enthalten.

Der Autor
Martin Petzoldt (1946–2015) war Professor für Systematische Theologie an der Theologischen Fakultät der Universität Leipzig. In seinem Nachlass hat sich glücklicherweise ein komplettes Manuskript für diese beiden ausstehenden Bände gefunden, das von einem Expertenteam unter der Leitung von Norbert Bolin ediert und für den Druck vorbereitet wird.

Was bleibt? Johann Sebastian Bach gestaltete und verfeinerte sein reiches musikalisches Erbe sehr bewusst: Über Jahrzehnte hinweg trug er sorgfältig angelegte Sammlungen, Originaldrucke und reinschriftliche Partituren zusammen, mit denen er Maßstäbe setzen und der Nachwelt im Gedächtnis bleiben wollte – wie eine musikalische Autobiografie.

Chr istoph Wolff porträtiert im vorliegenden Buch anhand dieser Referenzwerke Bachs bahnbrechende künstlerische Leistungen quer durch die verschiedenen Gattungen der Instrumental- und Vokalmusik: Präludien, Fugen und Orgelchoräle, Suiten, Sonaten und Konzerte sowie Kantaten, Passionen, Oratorien und Messen. Auf dieser ganzen imponierenden Breite trieb Bach mit seiner musikalischen Logik und ausdrucksvollen Tonsprache die Kompositionsgeschichte voran.

For the composition of the Christmas Oratorio, Bach made use of the parody method - as he did in other large vocal works as well - that is, he drew upon previously written pieces (here primarily from the Congratulatory Cantatas BWV 213 and 214) and skilfully adapted them to the new text. It is likely that Bach began working on the music during the Advent period of 1734. Besides the first performance which took place during the Christmas season 1734/35, it seems quite probable that other performances were held during Bachs lifetime, since the original, partly autographic performance material discloses traces of frequent use.
