Bach: Cantatas BWV 65, 73, 81, 190.1 | Philippe Herreweghe & Collegium Vocale Gent
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 лип 2024
- The Bachfest Leipzig is marking a special anniversary in 2023: In the year 1723, so exactly 300 years ago, Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) took up his post as cantor of St. Thomas Church in the Saxon city. His job involved planning the music for worship in several churches on around 60 days of the year, as well as teaching pupils at the St. Thomas School. To accomplish this mammoth task, Bach composed cantatas at a rate of almost one a week during his first year in office alone. The compositions, which later became known as Bach’s “first cantata cycle in Leipzig,” not only astonished his contemporaries but continue to delight people to this day. These compositions are extraordinary not only for their diversity but also for the way in which Bach reworked traditional musical forms and expanded the genre into new creative terrain - all in the space of one year between 1723 and 1724. Despite their technical challenges, these cantatas are among the Baroque composer’s most popular and frequently performed works.
Philippe Herreweghe, one of the few star conductors for early music, has chosen four cantatas from Bach’s first cantata year in Leipzig, which Bach composed specifically for his Leipzig ensemble and performed between New Year’s Day and the Feat of Epiphany in 1724. Herreweghe is conducting his world-famous ensemble, Collegium Vocale Gent, in the St. Thomas Church in Leipzig.

The internationally renowned conductor and Bach expert Philippe Herreweghe founded the Collegium Vocale Gent in 1970. Together they perform early music as a kind of historical performance practice. In 1989, the vocal ensemble was expanded to include an orchestra made up of first-class international performers of Baroque music. With the Collegium Vocale Gent choir and orchestra, Herreweghe has since produced landmark early music recordings, including the cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach.

In these troubled times that the world is living in, it is so pleasing to listen to the heavenly music of J.S.BACH. Greetings from Medellin. Colombia 🇨🇴
Greetings from America!! I agree, classical music really helps take away the madness of the world. Much Love to You and Your Family!❤☀️❤
@@valethewolf49Thank you very much for your nice message.
The Cantatas offer special solace from my works weariness. There so much to enjoy and embrace in their messages and sentiments. The soloists and choir are every match to the instrumentals. I love their voices and articulation. The harmonies and blend but natural and perfect My German is very first year elementary, yet each word is clear to my Anglophone ears. Lovely ❤️ ❤❤
Si, Marta, así es. Dios les bendiga a ti y a tus seres queridos.
@@chananvanes5322Muchas gracias, lo mismo deseo para ti y tu seres queridos.
Since the early 80's, with his Harmonia Mundi recordings, Philippe Herreweghe is for me the greatest interpreter of Bach's vocal music. Such grace! Such understanding of the text! Such beauty in the musical flow!
you say this, others say different. maybe you C L A Z Y ???????
I totally agree. His interpretations are pure gold. I was at work in a hospital and I would try to get people into them. I told a nurse I would lend her a selection, and she forgot. I found her in a room with a patient. I was like, "Hey, you forgot the cds!" "What cds?" "The Herreweghe cds." The patient springs up in the bed. "What!? What did you say?" "I was going to lend her some cds from Phillipe Herreweghe." "OMG, he is my Son in Law!" He's from Europe, and we are in Montreal. Now it's my turn. "OMG, I love this guy! What are the chances!" "Yes', he said," You have never seen a man work harder. He stays up late studying every night. He is a Medical Doctor, a Psychiatrist and on the side, he formed a Chorale Ensemble.' He was just beaming with pride. "I am shocked that you know him here." "I'm not." I said. "Greatness has a way of becoming known" What a man!
I can only imagine some pharmacist, "I'm going to have to call the doctor... I'm not sure if we carry BWV 243!"
Bach+Herreweghe = perfection.
What a boss Hereweghe is. Glory to God for eternity.
Zeer zeer mooi. Al meer dan 40 jaar volg ik wat Philippe Herreweghe doet, een van de grootste Bach specialisten ter wereld …prachtig !!!!
....and the heavens opened up, and Bach peered down into St. Thomas in Leipzig, and said: "Sehr schön, sehr gut..."
Magnificent performance and conduction, impressive sound and lights, superb presentation and lovely production. I wish God and Bach fill all of you with blessings and prosperity!
So beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOVE IT
Las cantatas sacras de Bach so muy mu muy bellas y de altísima calidad. Con Bach da ganas de creer más en Dios, refuerza mi Fe
there won't be another J.S. Bach in billion years. I am blessed to know and play a lot of his works.
My thanks to the composer and to all of you who devote yourselves to interpret his music so beautifully. God bless us all. Thanks for posting.
Glad you enjoyed the performance too. Thanks.
Thanks for your lovely comment and best from Berlin 🙂
You can always tell when it's J S Bach. It's undeniable. Unmistakable. Thank you Herr Bach for giving us this treasure. 🙏
Thank you so much for this experience of Bach's Cantatas!! Always wonderful Herreweghe and Colegium Vocale Gent!! And in St. Thoma's Kirche in Leipzig!! Sublime!
Happy Sunday with this blessed music 🎶 USA
Quite wonderul!!
"Will ye shall not unless God (Nature) wills, the Lord of all being." The natural contentment, tranquility and exultation Bach's music reflects come from righteousness, from the good eternal soul that seeks to be one with God's will and not one's own frequently divisive will. Thanks to all the fine artists ... Nothing reflects eternal beauty and drama more than the human voice, especially in a choir. 🎉🎉🎉
Herrlich
Bach Cantatas played from the tribune of St Thomas church in Leipzig… A marvel in the very setting where it was born interpreted by one of the best European baroque ensemble. Thank you very much DW for offering us such a gift!
Vielen Dank an alle! Muchas gracias desde Argentina.
Wunderschöne und lebhafte Aufführung dieser vier fein komponierten Kantaten mit gut harmonisierten Stimmen des ausgezeichneten Chors und herrlichen Stimmen vierer genialen Solisten sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Originalinstrumente. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das ebenso ausgezeichnete Barockorchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Wundervoll und inspirierend zugleich!
Beautiful
Superb! No egos trying to show off, but people in service of making Bach sound convincing.
Thank you very much for posting this wonderful and lively interpretation and performace of these Bach-cantatas with these beautiful voices of the soloists and choir and of the intstruments. The combination of these bible texts with this music amazes and inspires me again and again.
We're glad you enjoyed it. Make sure to follow us in order to not miss out in the future 😊
Bach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesss! Bach makes it worthwhile, and these talented musicians and their interpretation brings Bach to life. I, too can’t have enough of the one and only, Bach! … Thank you
Great performance of Bach's works.
CUANTA BELLEZA!!❤🇺🇾
What a great gift! Greetings from Caracas!
Thank you very much for your comment!
Glorious music
Thank you so much for posting these concerts. Im not big classical music listener here and there and im finding myself relaxing listening to this
Dear ghfun1, thanks for your comment! We're happy to hear that 🙂
I am thrilled to hear this music. It is so satisfying; it feels primordial. I was looking for Bach contatas I owned on recordings as a teenager that I loved but am greatly enjoying these. I’m now 89. I’m looking for “Christ lag in todesbanden,” “mine Frein is mine,”. I found Sleepers Awake. Elizabeth
Bravo!!!!!❤🎼Bach👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Excelente música barroca interpretada por esta orquesta y coro de finísima calidad del gran destacado compositor alemán bach realmente me deleito y lo disfruto

Acordes y sonidos que emiten Serenidad y Paz en el Corazón.....llenan el alma de inspiración y la mente de pensar gratificante.....se regociga el espíritu con la mejor energia vital, diferentes voces, tonos y expresión del mejor arte del mundo .....Un gran Abrazo
Herreweghe " monstro" . Maestro impecável. Adoro Bach. Ele é o melhor maestro para o mestre Bach.
This must quench my spiritual thirst
Immer wieder ein Wunder, wie die Musiker bei dem Rumgezittere auch nur einen einzigen Einsatz zusammen hinbekommen.
Wonderful! A pleasure for the ears.
thanks for you all who research Bach’s heritage in all your career.greetings from Taiwan.

Aus Süd korea bedanke ich so sehr für DW
cette musique merveilleuse me fait presque fondre le cœur, douce, belle et profondément spirituelle, une véritable prière à Dieu et puis il y a le charme de la langue allemande. Merci pour le partage et surtout merci au Maestro Herreweghe.
Thank you for your comment. If possible, please comment in English next time so that more people can follow the discussion. All the best!
Great video ! Thanks from Brazil !

Excelente execução, muito apreciável esta obra de Bach, por este ilustre maestro.
Bem hajam a todos que interpretam esta grandiosa obra.
Thank you for your comment. If possible, please comment in English next time so that more people can follow the discussion. All the best!
Herreweghe is a lovely man. I was involved in conferring an Honorary Doctorate on him in 1993 when I was a guest of the Leuven faculty. Chatting with him many years later after a concert he gave here is Tokyo (notable for Stravinsky’s Mass, haunting music with archaic Greek and Venetian resonances) I mischievously told him that the last time I met him was when conferring a Doctorate on him in Leuven-he nearly fainted!
Hermoso, excitante y armonioso.
Gracias a cada miembro de la orquesta y a DW por difundir la cultura.
Saludos de Guadalajara, México.
¡Con mucho gusto! 🙂
Nice.
Ich bin immer wieder erstaunt über die Freude der Flamen und Holländer an der Bach'schen Musik.
Der Eingangschor der 1. Kantate hätte allerdings etwas lockerer sein können.
Dafür sind Solonaß und Tenor ein Klang - Genuß !
Delighted that he shares my lack of enthusiasm for Handel
, 👏👏👏!!!

Le trombe sono assolutamente INascoltabili!
.....Summa Humanitatis D.S.G. J. S. BACH..... 🎼🎵🎶
Alli estuvimos, el 10 de junio de 2023, en Santo Tomás. La única mancha de ese concierto maravilloso (como el dirigido por Rudolf Lutz dos días antes en San Nicolás o la increíble visión de la Misa en si menor dirigida por Masaaki Suzuki como cierre del festival) es que sigo sin ver la necesidad de que Herreweghe haga comparaciones (minuto 13:04) entre Bach y Handel (nacido muy cerca, en Halle), diciendo literalmente que Handel es "superficial" y que "no es uno de sus compositores favoritos". Sobra, y no se entiende en absoluto en la boca de un músico como Herreweghe.
We were there, on June 10, 2023, in Thomaskirche. The only stain on that wonderful concert (like the one conducted by Rudolf Lutz two days earlier in Nikolaikirche or the incredible vision of the Mass in B minor directed by Masaaki Suzuki as the festival's closing) is that I still don't see the need for Herreweghe to make comparisons (minute 13:04) between Bach and Handel (born very close, in Halle), literally saying that Handel is "shallow" and that he is "not one of his favorite composers." It's superfluous, and it's not at all understandable in the mouth of a musician like Herreweghe.

נהדר! חצוצרה אחת צריך לשלוח לתיקון
Omg yes
Bach la voz de dios
From the screen capture, I almost thought Herr Günter Wand has returned from the Dead. 😅
🇧🇷
Vive Bach et la foot ball❤.
One of the singers looks like a perfect fusion of Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland. (also great voice!)
Voit l'auditeur du spectateur innocent un successeur du 21e siècle de Catweazle, la célèbre figure populaire de télévision des années 1970?
??????
Wat zou E. Gardiner hiervan denken?
Die Hörner waren nicht in der Qualität des erforderlichen Könnens, das erwarten wir in Leipzig besser
Bach war Christ, ich bin überzeugt Gott hat ihm die Musik eingegeben, der Text war ja schon geschrieben, alles zu Gottes Ehre! Gelobt sei der Herr!!
why using these ancient style horns, if they cannot get them sound properly?
yes,it,s a challenge. I think Bach would prefer modern instruments if he had them in his time.

Tenors sound terrible! Where is Malcolm Bennett when you need him most?!!
What a funny talk and weird translation😂😮😅
Leider können wir nicht die Wörter auf deutsch hören
Lieber Juan Pablo Deck Claramunt, da haben Sie leider recht. Da wir ein englischsprachiger Kanal sind, haben wir uns für die englisch synchronisierte Fassung entschieden. Aber wenn Sie versprechen😉 ... danach wieder zu uns zu wechseln, verrate ich Ihnen, dass Sie die deutsche Fassung auf dem YT-Kanal des Bach-Archivs Leipzig anschauen können 🤫
Herzliche Grüße aus Berlin!
@@DWClassicalMusic Ich bin aus Chile und hier sprechen wir spanisch, etwas deutsch auch (SüdChile). In Chile haben wir etwa 27 Deutsche Schulen, wo deutsch unterrichtet. Wir verstehen ja nicht warum sonst in Deutschland englisch sprechen....Grüsse
Lieber Juan Pablo Deck Claramunt, vielen Dank für Ihre Antwort!
Sie haben natürlich recht, in Deutschland wird vor allem Deutsch gesprochen. Es ist toll, dass in Südchile Deutsch so verbreitet ist und an so vielen Schulen unterrichtet wird! In den meisten Ländern ist aber ja eher Englisch die zweite Sprache. Und da ein großer Komponist wie Bach auch international auf großes Interesse stößt und viele Menschen aus dem Ausland eben eher Englisch sprechen als Deutsch, gibt es bei solchen Veranstaltungen auch eine zeitgleiche englische Übersetzung der Reden.
Auch die Deutsche Welle möchte mit ihrem Programm und ihren Kanälen möglichst viele Menschen auf der ganzen Welt erreichen, deswegen arbeiten wir in vielen verschiedenen Sprachen. DW Classical Music möchte möglichst viele Liebhaber der Klassischen Musik auf der ganzen Welt ansprechen, deswegen haben wir uns hier für ein englischsprachiges Angebot entschieden. (Aber wir freuen uns auch immer, deutsche Kommentare und Anfragen zu beantworten 😊 ). Herzliche Grüße aus Berlin!
Lei e' molto gentile, ma non conosco l'inglese,ne tanto meno il tedesco...comunque basta la volonta'...
AHAHAHAH THE NIGHT OF WALKING DEADS 😂
Nuestro padre Bach siempre sublime...
whomen alt is better than male altus 😞and the sounds of the hornists are often wrong 😞
bitte sprecht nicht zwei Sprachen gleichzeitig!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Da wir ein englischsprachiger Kanal sind, haben wir uns für die simultan englisch synchronisierte Fassung entschieden, die deutsche ist dabei tatsächlich noch recht laut zu hören. Aber wenn Sie versprechen, danach wieder zu uns zu wechseln, verrate ich Ihnen, dass Sie die "pure" deutsche Fassung auf dem YT-Kanal des Bach-Archivs Leipzig anschauen können
😉🤫 Viele Grüße aus Berlin
