Bach cantata

The cantatas composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, known as Bach cantatas (German: Bachkantaten), are a body of work consisting of over 200 surviving independent works, and at least several dozen that are considered lost. As far as known, Bach's earliest cantatas date from 1707, the year he moved to Mühlhausen, although he may have begun composing them at his previous post in Arnstadt. Most of Bach's church cantatas date from his first years as Thomaskantor and director of church music in Leipzig, a position which he took up in 1723.

Working for Leipzig's Thomaskirche and Nikolaikirche, it was part of Bach's job to perform a church cantata every Sunday and holiday, conducting soloists, the Thomanerchor and orchestra as part of the church service. In his first years in Leipzig, starting after Trinity of 1723, Bach regularly composed a new cantata every week, although some of these cantatas were adapted (at least in part) from work he had composed before his Leipzig era.^[1] Works from three annual cycles of cantatas for the liturgical calendar have survived. These relate to the readings prescribed by the Lutheran liturgy for the specific occasion. The last known cantata was composed in 1745.

In addition to the church cantatas composed for occasions of the liturgical year, Bach wrote sacred cantatas for functions like weddings or Ratswahl (the inauguration of a new town council). His secular cantatas, around 50 known works, less than half of which surviving with both text and music, were written for academic functions of the University of Leipzig, or anniversaries and entertainment among the nobility and in society, some of them Glückwunschkantaten (congratulatory cantatas) and Huldigungskantaten (homage cantatas).

Bach's cantatas usually require four soloists and a four-part choir, but he also wrote solo cantatas (i.e. for one soloist singer) and dialogue cantatas for two singers. The words of Bach's cantatas, almost always entirely in German, consist mostly of 18th-century poetry, Lutheran hymns and dicta. Hymns were mostly set to their Lutheran chorale tune. His chorale cantata cycle contains at least 40 chorale cantatas, each of these entirely based on text and tune of such hymn.

Titles of the cantatas

Although the German term Bachkantate (Bach cantata) became very familiar, Bach himself rarely used the title Cantata in his manuscripts. In Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen, BWV 56, he wrote Cantata à Voce Sola e Stromenti (Cantata for solo voice and instruments). Another cantata in which Bach used that term is Ich bin vergnügt mit meinem Glücke, BWV 84. Typically, he began a heading with the abbreviation J.J. (Jesu juva, "Jesus, help"), followed by the name of the celebration, the beginning of the words and the instrumentation, for example in Gloria in excelsis Deo, BWV 191. Bach often signed his cantatas with SDG, short for Soli Deo Gloria ("glory to the only God" / "glory to God alone").^[2]

Bach often wrote a title page for the autograph score and copies of the original parts. For example, he titled the parts of Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir, BWV 38, using a mix of languages to describe the occasion, the incipit, the precise scoring and his name: "Dominica 21. post Trinit / Aus tieffer Noth schrey ich zu dir. / â / 4. Voc. / 2. Hautbois. / 2. Violini. / Viola. / 4. Tromboni / e / Continuo. / di / Signore / J.S.Bach".^[3] The occasion for which the piece was performed is given first, in Latin: "Dominica 21. post Trinit" (21st Sunday after Trinity Sunday, with Trinit short for Trinitatem). The title follows, given in German in the orthography of Bach's time. The scoring and finally his name appear in a mix of French and Italian, the common languages among musicians at the time, partly abbreviated.

BWV number

Bach wrote more than 200 cantatas, of which many have survived. In the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV), Wolfgang Schmieder assigned them each a number within groups: 1–200 (sacred cantatas), 201–216 (secular cantatas), and 217–224 (cantatas of doubtful authorship). Since Schmieder's designation, several of the cantatas he thought authentic have been redesignated as "spurious." However, the spurious cantatas retain their BWV numbers. The List of Bach cantatas is organized by BWV number but sortable by other criteria.

Structure of a Bach cantata

A typical Bach cantata of his first year in Leipzig follows the scheme:

1. Opening chorus
2. Recitative
3. Aria
4. Recitative (or Arioso)
5. Aria
6. Chorale

The opening chorus (Eingangschor) is usually a polyphonic setting, with the orchestra presenting the themes or contrasting material first. Most arias follow the form of a da capo aria, repeating the first part after a middle section. The final chorale is typically a homophonic setting of a traditional melody.

Bach used an expanded structure to take up his position in Leipzig with the cantatas Die Elenden sollen essen, BWV 75, and Die Himmel erzählen die Ehre Gottes, BWV 76, both in two parts, to be performed before and after the sermon (post orationem) and during communion (sub communione). Each part is a sequence of an opening movement, five movements with alternating recitatives and arias, and a chorale. In an exemplary way both cantatas cover the prescribed readings: starting with a related psalm from the Old Testament, Part I reflects the Gospel and Part II the Epistle.^[4]

Bach did not follow any strict scheme but composed as he wanted to express the words. A few cantatas are opened by an instrumental piece before the first chorus, such as the Sinfonia of Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir, BWV 29. A solo movement begins Gott, man lobet dich in der Stille, BWV 120, because its first words speak of silence. Many cantatas composed in Weimar are set like chamber music, mostly for soloists, with a four-part setting only in the closing chorale, which may have been sung by the soloists. In an early cantata, Erschallet, ihr Lieder, erklinget, ihr Saiten! BWV 172, Bach marked a repeat of the opening chorus after the chorale.

The chorale can be as simple as a traditional four-part setting, or be accompanied by an obbligato instrument, or be accompanied by the instruments of the opening chorus or even expanded by interludes based on its themes, or have the homophonic vocal parts embedded in an instrumental concerto as in the familiar Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben, BWV 147, or have complex vocal parts embedded in the concerto as in Ärgre dich, o Seele, nicht, BWV 186, in a form called Choralphantasie (chorale fantasia). In Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland, BWV 61, for the first Sunday in Advent, the beginning of a new liturgical year, he rendered the opening chorus as a French overture.

Singers and instrumentation

Vocal

Typically Bach employs soprano, alto, tenor and bass soloists and a four-part choir, also SATB. He sometimes assigns the voice parts to the dramatic situation, for example soprano for innocence or alto for motherly feelings. The bass is often the vox Christi, the voice of Jesus, when Jesus is quoted directly, as in Es wartet alles auf dich, BWV 187, or indirectly, as in O Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort, BWV 60.

In the absence of clear documentary evidence, there are different options as to how many singers to deploy per part in choral sections. This is reflected in the recordings discussed below. Ton Koopman, for example, is a conductor who has recorded a complete set of the cantatas and who favours a choir with four singers per part. On the other hand, some modern performances and recordings use one voice per part. Joshua Rifkin is well known is an advocate of this approach, although it has yet to be followed through in a complete set of cantatas. Nonetheless, Bach would have had more singers available at Leipzig, for example, while the space in the court chapel in Weimar was limited. One size of choir probably does not fit all the cantatas.

Instrumental

The orchestra that Bach used is based on string instruments (violin, viola) and basso continuo, typically played by cello, double bass (an octave lower) and organ. A continuo bass is the rule in Baroque music; its absence is noteworthy and often has a special reason, such as describing fragility.^{[example needed]}

The specific character of a cantata or a single movement is rather defined by wind instruments, such as oboe, oboe da caccia, oboe d'amore, flauto traverso, recorder, trumpet, horn, trombone, and timpani. In movements with winds, a bassoon usually joins the continuo group.

Festive occasions call for richer instrumentation. Some instruments also carry symbolic meaning, such as a trumpet, the royal instrument of the Baroque, for divine majesty and three trumpets for the Trinity. In an aria of BWV 172, addressing the Heiligste Dreifaltigkeit (Most holy Trinity), the bass is accompanied only by three trumpets and timpani.

In many arias Bach uses obbligato instruments, which accompany the singer as an equal partner. These instrumental parts are frequently set in virtuoso repetitive patterns called figuration. Instruments include, in addition to the ones mentioned, organ, flauto piccolo (sopranino recorder), violino piccolo, viola d'amore, violoncello piccolo (a smaller cello), tromba da tirarsi (slide trumpet) and corno da tirarsi.

In his early compositions Bach also used instruments that had become old-fashioned, such as viola da gamba and violone. Alto recorders (flauti dolci) are sometimes used in connection with death and mourning as in Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit, BWV 106.

Solo cantata

Some cantatas are composed for a solo singer (Solokantate), as Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen, BWV 51, for soprano, sometimes concluded by a chorale, as in Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen, BWV 56, for bass.

Dialogue cantata

Some cantatas are structured as a dialogue, mostly for Jesus and the Soul (bass and soprano), set like miniature operas. Bach titled them for example Concerto in Dialogo, concerto in dialogue. An early example is Tritt auf die Glaubensbahn, BWV 152 (1714). He composed four such works in his third annual cycle, Selig ist der Mann, BWV 57 (1725), Liebster Jesu, mein Verlangen, BWV 32, Ich geh und suche mit Verlangen, BWV 49 (both 1726), and Ach Gott, wie manches Herzeleid, BWV 58 (1727).^[5]

Text of Bach's sacred cantatas

Within the Lutheran liturgy, certain readings from the Bible were prescribed for every event during the church year; specifically, it was expected that an Epistel from an Epistle and Evangelium from a Gospel would be read. Music was expected for all Sundays and holidays except the quiet times (tempus clausum) of Advent and Lent; the cantatas were supposed to reflect the readings. Many opening movements are based on quotations from the Bible, such as Sie werden aus Saba alle kommen, BWV 65, from Isaiah 60:6. Ideally, a cantata text started with an Old Testament quotation related to the readings, and reflected both the Epistle and the Gospel, as in the exemplary Die Himmel erzählen die Ehre Gottes, BWV 76. Most of the solo movements are based on poetry of contemporary writers, such as court poet Salomon Franck in Weimar or Georg Christian Lehms or Picander in Leipzig, with whom Bach collaborated. The final words were usually a stanza from a chorale. Bach's Chorale cantatas are based exclusively on one chorale, for example the early Christ lag in Todes Banden, BWV 4, and most cantatas of his second annual cycle in Leipzig.^{[citation needed]}

The German text may pose difficulties in translation and comprehension. Sometimes caused by archaic language, these issues are also a result of the different social context of modern artists and listeners, who do not share the same biblical and theological knowledge and perspectives as Bach or his audience.^[6]

Periods of cantata composition

See also: Church cantata (Bach) § History and context

The following lists of works (some marked as questioned) rely mainly on Alfred Dürr's Die Kantaten von Johann Sebastian Bach. Usually the cantatas appear in the year of their first performance, sometimes also for later performances and then in brackets.

Mühlhausen

See also: Early cantata (Bach)

Bach moved to Mühlhausen in 1707 when he was 22 to take up an appointment as the organist of St. Blasius church (Divi Blasii). There is evidence suggesting that he composed a cantata as an audition piece for Mühlhausen, and this may have been Christ lag in Todes Banden, BWV 4. One or two more surviving cantatas may have been composed while Bach was at his previous post in Arnstadt, for example, Nach dir, Herr, verlanget mich, BWV 150.

A couple of the surviving cantatas can be firmly dated to his time in Mühlhausen. For example, Gott ist mein König, BWV 71, was composed for the inauguration of the town council in 1708. By Bach's own account, Aus der Tiefen rufe ich, Herr, zu dir, BWV 131, was also composed at Mühlhausen. Other cantatas are assumed to date from this period:

• Lobe den Herrn, meine Seele, BWV 143, related to Psalm 146, likely for New Year's Day
• Der Herr denket an uns, BMV 196, assumed to be a wedding cantata
• Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit, BWV 106, a funeral cantata

Weimar

Further information: Weimar cantata (Bach)

Bach worked in Weimar from 1708. He composed a secular cantata, Was mir behagt, ist nur die muntre Jagd, BWV 208, in 1713. The composition of cantatas for the Schlosskirche (court chapel) on a regular monthly basis started with his promotion to Konzertmeister in March 1714.^[7] His goal was to compose a complete set of cantatas for the liturgical year within four years. The cantatas 54 and 199 were performed within the cycle but possibly composed earlier.

• 1713: Gleichwie der Regen und Schnee vom Himmel fällt, BWV 18? * 63?
• 1714: Himmelskönig, sei willkommen, BWV 182 * Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen, BWV 12 * 172 * 21 * 54 * 199 * 61 * 152
• 1715: Der Himmel lacht! Die Erde jubilieret, BWV 31 * 165 * 185 * 162 * 163 * 132
• 1716: Mein Gott, wie lang, ach lange? BWV 155 * 161 * 80a *70a * 186a * 147a

Köthen

See also: Lobet den Herrn, alle seine Heerscharen, BWV Anh. 5

Bach worked in Köthen from 1717 to 1723, where he composed for example the Brandenburg Concertos. He had no responsibility for church music, but his employer Prince Leopold did commission secular cantatas. Later in Leipzig, he derived several church cantatas from congratulatory cantatas, such as Erfreut euch, ihr Herzen, BWV 66, for Easter from the birthday cantata Der Himmel dacht auf Anhalts Ruhm und Glück, BWV 66a. ^[8][9]

• 1717?: Durchlauchtster Leopold, BWV 173a (or between 1720 and 1722)
• 1718: Der Himmel dacht auf Anhalts Ruhm und Glück, BWV 66a
• 1719: Die Zeit, die Tag und Jahre macht, BWV 134a

Even after he moved to Leipzig he retained his title of Fürstlich Köthenischer Kapellmeister (that is director of music to the court at Köthen). He continued to compose for the court until Leopold's funeral in 1729. There is evidence that he reused musical material from works that he premiered in Leipzig in the 1720s, for example the secular cantata Schwingt freudig euch empor, BWV 36.1, believed to be have been composed to honour one of the Bach's academic colleagues in Leipzig, was the basis of a secular cantata with a text in honour of Leopold's second wife.^[10]

• 1726: Steigt freudig in die Luft, BWV 36a
• 1729: Klagt, Kinder, klagt es aller Welt, BWV 244a

Leipzig

In Leipzig Bach was responsible for the town's church music in the Thomaskirche and Nikolaikirche and was head of the Thomasschule. Church cantata performances alternated in the two churches for ordinary Sundays and took place in both churches on high holidays such as Christmas, then one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and again alternating for the three days such an occasion was celebrated. Academic functions took place at the Universitätskirche St. Pauli. There is debate whether Bach performed Wer mich liebet, der wird mein Wort halten, BWV 59, there a week before he began his cantorate. Bach started it on the first Sunday after Trinity of 1723 and wrote a first annual cycle. Bach's major works such as the Passions and the Mass in B minor are inserted in the listing for comparison.

• 1723: Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe, BWV 22 * Du wahrer Gott und Davids Sohn, BWV 23 (audition pieces)

First cantata cycle

• 1723: Die Elenden sollen essen, BWV 75 * 76 * (21) * 24 * 167 * 147 * Magnificat * 186 * 136 * 105 * 46 * 179 * (199) * 69a * 77 * 25 * 119 * 138 * 95 * 148 * 48 * (162) * 109 * 89 * (163?) * 60 * 90 * 70 * (61) * (63) * 40 * 64
• 1724: Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied, BWV 190 * 153 * 65 * 154 * (155) * 73 * 81 * 83 * 144 * 181 + (18) * (22 23) * (182) * St John Passion * (4) * 66 * 134 * 67 * 104 * (12) * 166 * 86 * 37 * 44 * 59 * 173 * 184 * 194

Second cantata cycle

Main article: Bach's second cantata cycle

After Trinity of 1724 he started a second annual cycle of mainly chorale cantatas. The chorale was typically the chorale prescribed for that week (Hauptlied or Wochenlied). These cantatas were performed even after his death, according to Christoph Wolff probably because the well-known hymns were appealing to the audience.^[11]

• 1724: O Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort, BWV 20 * 2 * 7 * 135 * 10 * 93 * 107 * 178 * 94 * 101 * 113 * 33 * 78 * 99 * 8 * 130 * 114 * 96 * 5 * 180 * 38 * 115 * 139 * 26 * 116 * 62 * 91 * 121 * 133 * 122
• 1725: Jesu, nun sei gepreiset, BWV 41 * 123 * 124 * 3 * 111 * 92 * 125 * 126 * 127 * 1

The new cantatas Bach composed for Easter of 1725 and afterwards were not chorale cantatas:

• 1725: BWV 249, early version (later versions known as the Easter Oratorio but the 1725 version was a cantata) * 6 * 42 * 85 * 103 * 108 * 87 * 128 * 183 * 74 * 68 * 175 * 176

Two of these, BWV 128 and BWV 68, both starting with a chorale fantasia, are sometimes seen as included in the chorale cantata cycle.

Other cantatas by Bach that are usually seen as belonging to the chorale cantata cycle:

• BWV 4 (version as performed again at Easter 1725, somewhat different from the early Mühlhausen version) * 137 (1725) * 58 (1727) * 129 (1727) * 80 (1727 or later, although an early version of this cantata, BWV 80b, may have been composed for or performed on Reformation Day in 1724) * 112 (1731) * 140 (1731) * 177 (1732) * 9 (1732) * 14 (1735)

For four further chorale cantatas it is unclear for which occasion they were composed, and whether they were intended to be added to the cycle:

• BWV 117 (1728–1731) * 192 (1730) * 100 (1732–1735) * 97 (1734?)

Third to fifth year in Leipzig

Main article: Church cantatas of Bach's third to fifth year in Leipzig

After Trinity of 1725 Bach began a third annual cycle, but with less consistency. The first cantata is written for the ninth Sunday after Trinity, but the following year he added a substantial work for the first Sunday after Trinity. The cycle extends over several years, although the cantatas from 1727 have been termed as "between the third and fourth cycles".^[12] Cantatas for some occasions are not extant.

• 1748?: Mass in B minor, BWV 232 (largely a compilation of previously composed music)

Parodies

Bach sometimes reused an earlier composition, typically revising and improving it in a process called parody. For example, a movement from a partita for violin, in ceaseless motion, was arranged as an orchestral sinfonia with the organ as solo instrument for the wedding cantata 120a and again in Cantata 29, for which the organ was accompanied by a full orchestra dominated by trumpets. Not only a single movement but a complete cantata was reworked from the Shepherd cantata Entfliehet, verschwindet, entweichet, ihr Sorgen, BWV 249a, to become the Easter Oratorio. Bach used parody to be able to deliver cantatas for Christmas, Easter and Pentecost, which were each celebrated for a period of three days. His Easter cantata Ein Herz, das seinen Jesum lebend weiß, BWV 134, is a parody of six of eight movements of the cantata for New Year's Day, Die Zeit, die Tag und Jahre macht, BWV 134a. Six movements of his congratulatory cantata Durchlauchtster Leopold, BWV 173a, form the cantata for Pentecost Monday of 1724, Erhöhtes Fleisch und Blut, BWV 173, while a seventh movement was made part of the cantata for Pentecost Tuesday of 1725, Er rufet seinen Schafen mit Namen, BWV 175.

Bach's four short masses are parodies of cantata movements; he used several movements of Siehe zu, daß deine Gottesfurcht nicht Heuchelei sei, BWV 179, for two of them. When he compiled his Mass in B minor, he again used many cantata movements, such as a part of Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen, BWV 12, for the Crucifixus of the Credo.

Oratorios

Bach's oratorios can be considered as expanded cantatas. They were also meant to be performed during church services. Distinct from the cantatas, a narrator, the Evangelist, tells a story in the exact Bible wording, while soloists and the choir have "roles" such as Mary or "the shepherds", in addition to reflective chorales or arias commenting on the story. The St Matthew Passion and the St John Passion were intended to be performed on Good Friday, before and after the sermon. The six parts of the Christmas Oratorio were intended to be performed on six feast days of the Christmas season, each part composed as a cantata with an opening chorus (except in Part 2) and a closing chorale.

Performances by Bach

See also: Performance practice of Bach's music

Bach composed the cantatas and performed them, conducting from the keyboard. The choir was the Thomanerchor, which also served the other main churches of Leipzig for which Bach was responsible. Cantatas, under his personal direction, were performed in the Nikolaikirche and in the Thomaskirche, alternating on ordinary Sundays. On high feast days, the same cantata was performed in the morning in one of these churches, in a vespers service in the other.^[32]

Later performances and recordings

After Bach's death the cantatas fell into obscurity even more than his oratorios. There is some evidence for the chorale cantatas being performed at Leipzig after Bach's death, but the cantatas were little known until a society called the Bach-Gesellschaft began to publish the composer's complete works starting in 1851. Only one of the cantatas, Gott ist mein König, BWV 71, had been published during Bach's lifetime. The cantata Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern, BWV1, was selected as the first work to appear in the Bach-Gesellschaft-Ausgabe, the first complete edition.^[33]

In 1928, The New York Times reported the presentation in Paris of two secular Bach cantatas by opera soprano Marguerite Bériza and her company in staged productions, The Peasant Cantata and The Coffee Cantata.^[34] In 1931 a recording was made of a performance of Christ lag in Todes Banden, in Barcelona.

The number of performances and recordings increased in the decades after the Second World War. In the early 1950s Fritz Lehmann recorded several cantatas with the Berliner Motettenchor and the Berlin Philharmonic. From 1953, Max Thurn conducted for the broadcaster NDR a series of Bach cantatas, with members of the NDR Chor and members of the NDR Sinfonieorchester.^[35][36] Karl Richter called his choir programmatically Münchener Bach-Chor in 1954 and recorded about a third of the cantatas.

Between 1958 and 1987, the London Bach Society, conducted by Paul Steinitz performed all the extant church and secular cantatas, 208 separate works, in various venues, mostly in the Church of St Bartholomew-the-Great, London. Diethard Hellmann called the Kantorei (chorale) of the Christuskirche Bachchor Mainz in 1965 and produced more than 100 cantatas on a weekly basis with the Südwestrundfunk. Fritz Werner started recording with the Heinrich-Schütz-Chor Heilbronn and the Pforzheim Chamber Orchestra a series that they called Les Grandes Cantates de J.S. Bach.

The Thomanerchor has sung a weekly cantata during the evening service Motette on Saturday.^[37] The cantatas are also regularly performed on Sundays at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, New York City, under the direction of the Cantor (currently Donald R. Meineke).^[38]

Complete recordings

While individual cantatas were recorded as early as the 1930s, a complete set was not attempted until the 1970s when Nikolaus Harnoncourt and Gustav Leonhardt began recording the Teldec set. This 20-year collaboration used historical instruments, with boys' choirs and boy soloists for most soprano and a few alto parts. Harnoncourt conducted the Wiener Sängerknaben or the Tölzer Knabenchor and the Concentus Musicus Wien. Leonhardt conducted the Tölzer Knabenchor, Knabenchor Hannover and the Collegium Vocale Gent, and the ensemble Leonhardt-Consort. Helmuth Rilling, Gächinger Kantorei, and the Bach-Collegium Stuttgart completed a recording of the sacred cantatas and oratorios on Bach's 300th birthday, 21 March 1985. Ton Koopman and the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir recorded all vocal works of Bach in 10 years starting in 1994, including the cantatas.^[39] Sir John Eliot Gardiner and his Monteverdi Choir undertook the Bach Cantata Pilgrimage, performing and recording in the year 2000 the sacred cantatas at churches all over Europe and in the United States. Sigiswald Kuijken has recorded Cantatas for the Complete Liturgical Year with La Petite Bande and the soloists forming the choir. Masaaki Suzuki commenced in 1995 a project to record the complete sacred cantatas with his Bach Collegium Japan for the Swedish label BIS; he completed the process in 2013.^[40] Pieter Jan Leusink recorded the complete cantatas in 15 months in 1999 and 2000 with the Holland Boys Choir and Netherlands Bach Collegium for Brilliant Classics.

The Fifth Gospel

In 1929 the Swedish bishop Nathan Söderblom, a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, called Bach's cantatas the Fifth Gospel.^[41][42]

The cantatas composed by Johann Sebastian Bach known as Bach cantatas German Bachkantaten are a body of work consisting of over 200 surviving independent works and at least several dozen that are considered lost As far as known Bach s earliest cantatas date from 1707 the year he moved to Muhlhausen although he may have begun composing them at his previous post in Arnstadt Most of Bach s church cantatas date from his first years as Thomaskantor and director of church music in Leipzig a position which he took up in 1723 Bach s autograph of the soprano aria in the cantata Herr gehe nicht ins Gericht mit deinem Knecht BWV 105 Working for Leipzig s Thomaskirche and Nikolaikirche it was part of Bach s job to perform a church cantata every Sunday and holiday conducting soloists the Thomanerchor and orchestra as part of the church service In his first years in Leipzig starting after Trinity of 1723 Bach regularly composed a new cantata every week although some of these cantatas were adapted at least in part from work he had composed before his Leipzig era 1 Works from three annual cycles of cantatas for the liturgical calendar have survived These relate to the readings prescribed by the Lutheran liturgy for the specific occasion The last known cantata was composed in 1745 In addition to the church cantatas composed for occasions of the liturgical year Bach wrote sacred cantatas for functions like weddings or Ratswahl the inauguration of a new town council His secular cantatas around 50 known works less than half of which surviving with both text and music were written for academic functions of the University of Leipzig or anniversaries and entertainment among the nobility and in society some of them Gluckwunschkantaten congratulatory cantatas and Huldigungskantaten homage cantatas Bach s cantatas usually require four soloists and a four part choir but he also wrote solo cantatas i e for one soloist singer and dialogue cantatas for two singers The words of Bach s cantatas almost always entirely in German consist mostly of 18th century poetry Lutheran hymns and dicta Hymns were mostly set to their Lutheran chorale tune His chorale cantata cycle contains at least 40 chorale cantatas each of these entirely based on text and tune of such hymn Contents 1 Titles of the cantatas 2 BWV number 3 Structure of a Bach cantata 4 Singers and

15 External linksTitles of the cantatas EditAlthough the German term Bachkantate Bach cantata became very familiar Bach himself rarely used the title Cantata in his manuscripts In Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen BWV 56 he wrote Cantata a Voce Sola e Stromenti Cantata for solo voice and instruments Another cantata in which Bach used that term is Ich bin vergnugt mit meinem Glucke BWV 84 Typically he began a heading with the abbreviation J J Jesu juva Jesus help followed by the name of the celebration the beginning of the words and the instrumentation for example in Gloria in excelsis Deo BWV 191 Bach often signed his cantatas with SDG short for Soli Deo Gloria glory to the only God glory to God alone 2 Bach often wrote a title page for the autograph score and copies of the original parts For example he titled the parts of Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir BWV 38 using a mix of languages to describe the occasion the incipit the precise scoring and his name Dominica 21 post Trinit Aus tieffer Noth schrey ich zu dir a 4 Voc 2 Hautbois 2 Violini Viola 4 Tromboni e Continuo di Signore J S Bach 3 The occasion for which the piece was performed is given first in Latin Dominica 21 post Trinit 21st Sunday after Trinity Sunday with Trinit short for Trinitatem The title follows given in German in the orthography of Bach s time The scoring and finally his name appear in a mix of French and Italian the common languages among musicians at the time partly abbreviated BWV number EditThis section does not cite any sources Please help improve this section by adding

cantata of his first year in Leipzig follows the scheme Opening chorus Recitative Aria Recitative or Arioso Aria ChoraleThe opening chorus Eingangschor is usually a polyphonic setting with the orchestra presenting the themes or contrasting material first Most arias follow the form of a da capo aria repeating the first part after a middle section The final chorale is typically a homophonic setting of a traditional melody Bach used an expanded structure to take up his position in Leipzig with the cantatas Die Elenden sollen essen BWV 75 and Die Himmel erzahlen die Ehre Gottes BWV 76 both in two parts to be performed before and after the sermon post orationem and during communion sub communione Each part is a sequence of an opening movement five movements with alternating recitatives and arias and a chorale In an exemplary way both cantatas cover the prescribed readings starting with a related psalm from the Old Testament Part I reflects the Gospel and Part II the Epistle 4 Bach did not follow any strict scheme but composed as he wanted to express the words A few cantatas are opened by an instrumental piece before the first chorus such as the Sinfonia of Wir danken dir Gott wir danken dir BWV 29 A solo movement begins Gott man lobet dich in der Stille BWV 120 because its first words speak of silence Many cantatas composed in Weimar are set like chamber music mostly for soloists with a four part setting only in the closing chorale which may have been sung by the soloists In an early cantata Erschallet ihr Lieder erklinget ihr Saiten BWV 172 Bach marked a repeat of the opening chorus after the chorale The chorale can be as simple as a traditional four part setting or be accompanied by an obbligato instrument or be accompanied by the instruments of the opening chorus or even expanded by interludes based on its themes or have the homophonic vocal parts embedded in an instrumental concerto as in the familiar Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben BWV 147 or have complex vocal parts embedded in the concerto as in Argre dich o Seele nicht BWV 186 in a form called Choralphantasie chorale fantasia In Nun komm der Heiden Heiland BWV 61 for the first Sunday in Advent the beginning of a new liturgical year he rendered the opening chorus as a French overture Singers and instrumentation EditThis section has multiple issues Please help improve it or discuss

composed and performed church cantatas almost weekly from 1723 to 1726 Vocal Edit Typically Bach employs soprano alto tenor and bass soloists and a four part choir also SATB He sometimes assigns the voice parts to the dramatic situation for example soprano for innocence or alto for motherly feelings The bass is often the vox Christi the voice of Jesus when Jesus is quoted directly as in Es wartet alles auf dich BWV 187 or indirectly as in O Ewigkeit du Donnerwort BWV 60 In the absence of clear documentary evidence there are different options as to how many singers to deploy per part in choral sections This is reflected in the recordings discussed below Ton Koopman for example is a conductor who has recorded a complete set of the cantatas and who favours a choir with four singers per part On the other hand some modern performances and recordings use one voice per part Joshua Rifkin is well known is an advocate of this approach although it has yet to be followed through in a complete set of cantatas Nonetheless Bach would have had more singers available at Leipzig for example while the space in the court chapel in Weimar was limited One size of choir probably does not fit all the cantatas Instrumental Edit The orchestra that Bach used is based on string instruments violin viola and basso continuo typically played by cello double bass an octave lower and organ A continuo bass is the rule in Baroque music its absence is noteworthy and often has a special reason such as describing fragility example needed The specific character of a cantata or a single movement is rather defined by wind instruments such as oboe oboe da caccia oboe d amore flauto traverso recorder trumpet horn trombone and timpani In movements with winds a bassoon usually joins the continuo group Festive occasions call for richer instrumentation Some instruments also carry symbolic meaning such as a trumpet the royal instrument of the Baroque for divine majesty and three trumpets for the Trinity In an aria of BWV 172 addressing the Heiligste Dreifaltigkeit Most holy Trinity the bass is accompanied only by three trumpets and timpani In many arias Bach uses obbligato instruments which accompany the singer as an equal partner These instrumental parts are frequently set in virtuoso repetitive patterns called figuration Instruments include in addition to the ones mentioned organ flauto piccolo sopranino recorder violino piccolo viola d amore violoncello piccolo a smaller cello tromba da tirarsi slide trumpet and corno da tirarsi In his early compositions Bach also used instruments that had become old fashioned such as viola da gamba and violone Alto recorders flauti dolci are sometimes used in connection with death and mourning as in Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit BWV 106 Solo cantata Edit Some cantatas are composed for a solo singer Solokantate as Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen BWV 51 for soprano sometimes concluded by a chorale as in Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen BWV 56 for bass Dialogue cantata Edit Some cantatas are structured as a dialogue mostly for Jesus and the Soul bass and soprano set like miniature operas Bach titled them for example Concerto in Dialogo concerto in dialogue An early example is Tritt auf die Glaubensbahn BWV 152 1714 He composed four such works in his third annual cycle Selig ist der Mann BWV 57 1725 Liebster Jesu mein Verlangen BWV 32 Ich geh und suche mit Verlangen BWV 49 both 1726 and Ach Gott wie manches Herzeleid BWV 58 1727 5 Text of Bach s sacred cantatas EditWithin the Lutheran liturgy certain readings from the Bible were prescribed for every event during the church year specifically it was expected that an Epistel from an Epistle and Evangelium from a Gospel would be read Music was expected for all Sundays and holidays except the quiet times tempus clausum of Advent and Lent the cantatas were supposed to reflect the readings Many opening movements are based on quotations from the Bible such as Sie werden aus Saba alle kommen BWV 65 from Isaiah 60 6 Ideally a cantata text started with an Old Testament quotation related to the readings and reflected both the Epistle and the Gospel as in the exemplary Die Himmel erzahlen die Ehre Gottes BWV 76 Most of the solo movements are based on poetry of contemporary writers such as court poet Salomon Franck in Weimar or Georg Christian Lehms or Picander in Leipzig with whom Bach collaborated The final words were usually a stanza from a chorale Bach s Chorale cantatas are based exclusively on one chorale for example the early Christ lag in Todes Banden BWV 4 and most cantatas of his second annual cycle in Leipzig citation needed The German text may pose difficulties in translation and comprehension Sometimes caused by archaic language these issues are also a result of the different social context of modern artists and listeners who do not share the same biblical and theological knowledge and perspectives as Bach or his audience 6 Periods of cantata composition EditThis section needs additional citations for verification Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources Unsourced

organist of St Blasius church Divi Blasii There is evidence suggesting that he composed a cantata as an audition piece for Muhlhausen and this may have been Christ lag in Todes Banden BWV 4 One or two more surviving cantatas may have been composed while Bach was at his previous post in Arnstadt for example Nach dir Herr verlanget mich BWV 150 A couple of the surviving cantatas can be firmly dated to his time in Muhlhausen For example Gott ist mein Konig BWV 71 was composed for the inauguration of the town council in 1708 By Bach s own account Aus der Tiefen rufe ich Herr zu dir BWV 131 was also composed at Muhlhausen Other cantatas are assumed to date from this period Lobe den Herrn meine Seele BWV 143 related to Psalm 146 likely for New Year s Day Der Herr denket an uns BMV 196 assumed to be a wedding cantata Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit BWV 106 a funeral cantataWeimar Edit Further information Weimar cantata Bach Bach worked in Weimar from 1708 He composed a secular cantata Was mir behagt ist nur die muntre Jagd BWV 208 in 1713 The composition of cantatas for the Schlosskirche court chapel on a regular monthly basis started with his promotion to Konzertmeister in March 1714 7 His goal was to compose a complete set of cantatas for the liturgical year within four years The cantatas 54 and 199 were performed within the cycle but possibly composed earlier 1713 Gleichwie der Regen und Schnee vom Himmel fallt BWV 18 63 1714 Himmelskonig sei willkommen BWV 182 Weinen Klagen Sorgen Zagen BWV 12 172 21 54 199 61 152 1715 Der Himmel lacht Die Erde jubilieret BWV 31 165 185

composed for example the Brandenburg Concertos He had no responsibility for church music but his employer Prince Leopold did commission secular cantatas Later in Leipzig he derived several church cantatas from congratulatory cantatas such as Erfreut euch ihr Herzen BWV 66 for Easter from the birthday cantata Der Himmel dacht auf Anhalts Ruhm und Gluck BWV 66a 8 9 1717 Durchlauchtster Leopold BWV 173a or between 1720 and 1722 1718 Der Himmel dacht auf Anhalts Ruhm und Gluck BWV 66a 1719 Die Zeit die Tag und Jahre macht BWV 134aEven after he moved to Leipzig he retained his title of Furstlich Kothenischer Kapellmeister that is director of music to the court at Kothen He continued to compose for the court until Leopold s funeral in 1729 There is evidence that he reused musical material from works that he premiered in Leipzig in the 1720s for example the secular cantata Schwingt freudig euch empor BWV 36 1 believed to be have been composed to honour one of the Bach s academic colleagues in Leipzig was the basis of a secular cantata with a text in honour of Leopold s second wife 10 1726 Steigt freudig in die Luft BWV 36a 1729 Klagt Kinder klagt es aller Welt BWV 244aLeipzig Edit In Leipzig Bach was responsible for the town s church music in the Thomaskirche and Nikolaikirche and was head of the Thomasschule Church cantata performances alternated in the two churches for ordinary Sundays and took place in both churches on high holidays such as Christmas then one in the morning one in the afternoon and again alternating for the three days such an occasion was celebrated Academic functions took place at the Universitatskirche St Pauli There is debate whether Bach performed Wer mich liebet der wird mein Wort halten BWV 59 there a week before he began his cantorate Bach started it on the first Sunday after Trinity of 1723 and wrote a first annual cycle Bach s major works such as the Passions and the Mass in B minor are inserted in the listing for

mainly chorale cantatas The chorale was typically the chorale prescribed for that week Hauptlied or Wochenlied These cantatas were performed even after his death according to Christoph Wolff probably because the well known hymns were appealing to the audience 11 1724 O Ewigkeit du Donnerwort BWV 20 2 7 135 10 93 107 178 94 101 113 33 78 99 8 130 114 96 5 180 38 115 139 26 116 62 91 121 133 122

consistency The first cantata is written for the ninth Sunday after Trinity but the following year he added a substantial work for the first Sunday after Trinity The cycle extends over several years

called parody For example a movement from a partita for violin in ceaseless motion was arranged as an orchestral sinfonia with the organ as solo instrument for the wedding cantata 120a and again in Cantata 29 for which the organ was accompanied by a full orchestra dominated by trumpets Not only a single movement but a complete cantata was reworked from the Shepherd cantata Entfliehet verschwindet entweichet ihr Sorgen BWV 249a to become the Easter Oratorio Bach used parody to be able to deliver cantatas for Christmas Easter and Pentecost which were each celebrated for a period of three days His Easter cantata Ein Herz das seinen Jesum lebend weiss BWV 134 is a parody of six of eight movements of the cantata for New Year s Day Die Zeit die Tag und Jahre macht BWV 134a Six movements of his congratulatory cantata Durchlauchtster Leopold BWV 173a form the cantata for Pentecost Monday of 1724 Erhohtes Fleisch und Blut BWV 173 while a seventh movement was made part of the cantata for Pentecost Tuesday of 1725 Er rufet seinen Schafen mit Namen BWV 175 Bach s four short masses are parodies of cantata movements he used several movements of Siehe zu dass deine Gottesfurcht nicht Heuchelei sei BWV 179 for two of them When he compiled his Mass in B minor he again used many cantata movements such as a part of Weinen Klagen Sorgen Zagen BWV 12 for the Crucifixus of the

the NDR Sinfonieorchester 35 36 Karl Richter called his choir programmatically Munchener Bach Chor in 1954 and recorded about a third of the cantatas Between 1958 and 1987 the London Bach Society conducted by Paul Steinitz performed all the extant church and secular cantatas 208 separate works in various venues mostly in the Church of St Bartholomew the Great London Diethard Hellmann called the Kantorei chorale of the Christuskirche Bachchor Mainz in 1965 and produced more than 100 cantatas on a weekly basis with the Sudwestrundfunk Fritz Werner started recording with the Heinrich Schutz Chor Heilbronn and the Pforzheim Chamber Orchestra a series that they called Les Grandes Cantates de J S Bach The Thomanerchor has sung a weekly cantata during the evening service Motette on Saturday

individual cantatas were recorded as early as the 1930s a complete set was not attempted until the 1970s when Nikolaus Harnoncourt and Gustav Leonhardt began recording the Teldec set This 20 year collaboration used historical instruments with boys choirs and boy soloists for most soprano and a few alto parts Harnoncourt conducted the Wiener Sangerknaben or the Tolzer Knabenchor and the
