J. S. Bach Cantata # 202 "Wenn die Frühlingslüfte streichen...

[AmalaVonKlarer]

Nice camera cutting back and forth. Wish the colors had been matched but overall, it doesn't distract from the music which is very lovely.

I'd like to hear this cantata done with a clarinet.

[meliante2]

Its translation is:

"When the vernal breezes ramble

And through bright-clad meadows blow,

Amor, too, is wont to venture

Out to witness his great pride,

Which, as we believe, is this,

That one heart the other kiss. "

[meliante2]

Wonderful cantata! She sings in German, and the aria's lyric is:

"Wenn die Frühlingslüfte streichen

Und durch bunte Felder wehn,

Pflegt auch Amor auszuschleichen,

Um nach seinem Schmuck zu sehn,

Welcher, glaubt man, dieser ist,

Dass ein Herz das andre küsst."

[iaqsar]

Yes I completely agree -- great playing by the d'amore soloist & nice sound. I had heard this aria played with violin obbligato, but on checking the score, I see that it fits the range of the baroque d'amore perfectly, and is in a suitable key (fingered g-minor). Has anyone done it on the baroque instrument?

Great D'amore playing!! Beautiful
