V. Aria.

Öffne dich, mein ganzes Herze,
Jesus kömmt und ziehet ein. Bin ich gleich nur Staub und Erde, Will er mich doch nicht verschmähn, Seine Lust an mir zu sehn, Dass ich seine Wohnung werde. O wie selig werd ich sein!


English:

Open wide, my heart and spirit,
Jesus comes and draws within. Though I soon be earth and ashes, Me he will yet not disdain, That his joy he find in me And that I become his dwelling. Oh, how blessed shall I be!


Español:

Ábrete del todo, mi corazón,
Para que Jesús venga y se aloje dentro de ti. Aunque yo soy sólo polvo y tierra, Él no me desprecia, Sino que disfruta Al ver que me convierto en su morada. Oh, qué feliz seré entonces!

@FriendlyCroock May 3, 1965.

VistaXXX2008, you shall never know, for I bet Ms Schaefer has a great taste in men and that, per definitionem, excludes you. She is entirely beyond your reach.

[paquitolo]

Thanks María. I've never must allow that comment from VistaXXX2008.

Regards from Spain.

[Maria12thNight]

Thank you so much for this, I always liked Schaefer's interpretation of Mozart and now I see she is as good with Bach cantatas.

[MrBathiani]

Harnancourt and this ensemble did a great performance in many cantatas, Mrs. Schaefer interpretation is very good. Thank you for uploading.

[mrjsbach1685]

bellissima interpretazione, come sempre con Harnoncourt. Peccato per il recitativo del basso. Non capisco...pizzicata anche la voce?

Molto meglio, a mio parere ed in ordine al suddetto recitativo, il "vecchio" Harnoncourt...

[euphorialupstream]

Very perfect but seems to lack passion. Is passion an imperfection now-a-days?

[west07626]

excellent. I am listening to many Bach Cantatas. I just listened to Liza Sobel singing No. 115. She is a talented teenager, worth a viewing.

I would very much like to hear the final cadences in this cantata :[ This is not the only movement where it is missing.

[willthebest1]

baroque at its best!

In my opinion, Schäfer is on her way to become today's successor of Agnes Giebel an Arleen Auger in Bach cantatas.

A great rendition of this aria.
