Johann Sebastian Bach: Kantate 001 „Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern“: Mixed

Arias with 1 or 2 flutes obbligato (with the complete vocal part)-Arias with 1 or 2 Flutes obbligato (with the complete vocal part).Selected movements from secular cantatas from St Matthew Passion Mass in B minor and the Lutheran Mass in A major. This volume presents for the first time all those arias from the oratorios Passions Masses and sacred and secular cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach that contain obbligato parts for one or two Flutes. The musical text has been adopted from the “ Urtext ” of the New Bach Edition. Music and words are inseparable in Bach’s works. Therefore as an aid to the interpretation of these Flute solos our richly annotated collection offers notonly Flute part but also the complete vocal part for each movement. In this way the edition not only represents a novel form of Orchestral studies it also opens up an important area of the Flute repertoire. Contents:Kantate 45. Es ist dir gesagt Mensch was gut ist.

Kantate Zum 3. Weihnachtsfesttag (Urfassung). Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach’s cantata BWV 151, whose wonderfully heartfelt opening aria has been rightly numbered among Bach’s “most inspired ideas” [Alfred Dürr], was composed for the 3rd day of Christmas 1725. Flute and oboe d’amore lend pastoral coloring to the chamber music sound picture. The oboe d’amore was not originally included in Bach’s score; after completing the score he added the part to the orchestra for the first performance. In a later performance about 1728–1731 Bach replaced the flute by a solo violin, adding various performing instructions and ornaments, of which a flautist can make use in his originally rather modest part. This new edition by Klaus Hofmann replaces the 1962publication by Diethard Hellmann./ Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, Flûte Traversière, Ins

Kantate Zum 4. Advent. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach’s cantata BWV 132 was written for the 4th Sunday in Advent, and the autograph score is dated 1715. It was composed while Bach was at Weimar, to a libretto by the Weimar Court Preacher Salomon Franck. Its subject matter is the testimony of John the Baptist addressed to the Christian community and to individual believers. Since the original concluding chorale, the fifth verse of the hymn “Herr Christ der einig Gotts Sohn' [Elisabeth Cruziger], has been lost, here the cantata ends with the last movement [transposed from B flat to A major], to the same words, of the cantata BWV 164./ Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, HautboiSBasson, 2 Viol

Kantate Zum 12. Sonntag Nach Trinitatis. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach legte der Kantate 'Lobe den Herren, den mächtigen König' in allen Sätzen sowohl Melodie als auch Text des gleichnamigen Chorales zugrunde./ Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 3 Trompettes, Timbales

Kantate zum 1. Sonntag nach Epiphanias. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Among the vocal compositions incorrectly attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach, the cantata has a place of its own, because its tonal language approaches the unmistakable style of the Thomaskantor. This applies especially to its choral movements and recitatives. In the surviving sources, only one of which dates back to the 18th century, there are certain compositonal errors which cannot possibly be reconciled to Bach's mature style. The implication is that this is not a genuine cantata by the Leipzig Thomaskantor, but an ambitious piece by one of his pupils./ Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, Flûte Traversière, 2 V
