  • Good god is that beautiful.

  • This version is: Zion hört die Wächter singen, Das Herz tut ihr vor Freuden springen, Sie wachet und steht eilend auf. Ihr Freund kommt vom Himmel prächtig, Von Gnaden stark, von Wahrheit mächtig, Ihr Licht wird hell, ihr Stern geht auf. Nun komm, du werte Kron, Herr Jesu, Gottes Sohn! Hosianna! Wir folgen all Zum Freudensaal Und halten mit das Abendmahl. But who can tell me another version's lyrics(Wolfgang Gonnenwein, Consortium musicum)? Thanks.

  • @xgianpatrick So, it "appeals" to you, then?

  • Absolutely Beautiful!! It is also wonderful to be able to rehearse with and make sure I get everything right since we are doing this piece for Midnight Mass this year. The violins make it much easier for me to be able to do my counting. I am a site reader learning how to read my notes. I love music it is my passion, also a gift from God so I sing for HIM!

  • jaaa gehhtt´sss noch...des isch jo mol voll de hammer scheisse...sorry aber ich muss gerade kotzen.....

  • Sehr Schön!

  • @clashtitans2 I disagree. In the case of a Bach cantata, the goal is not IMHO to appeal to an audience but to glorify God, or more generally (for an agnostic such as myself) to invoke a sense of wonder, awe, reflection, grace. "Appeal" is a dangerous word, and the pursuit of audience appeal can be very misleading. The search for authenticity, however, has done Bach's music great service in the past decades, bringing it new vigor and fresh air, as this video demonstrates so beautifully.

  • In case anybody was interested, Bach was a composer at a church, and likely wrote this in a couple of days to be played at the week's mass. He wrote hundreds of these things.

  • Es una de las composiciones más perfectas que yo haya escuchado nunca

  • @Sylvain894 Oui, c'est bien le choral du veilleur dont Bach a fait une version pour orgue (le premier des 6 chorals Shubler), cordes à la main droite, continuo au pédalier et choeur à la main gauche.

  • Decisamente meglio questo tempo più mosso, la rende molto più fluida.

    Questa cantata insieme alla 147 sono le migliori
