Cette interprétation est tout simplement PARFAITE 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤ les musiciens sont superbes, les tempi, idéaux, l’hautboïste arrache des larmes par la simple beauté de sa sonorité. Ce soprano, en plus d’être une très belle femme, chante et interprète avec une telle joie et perfection technique, sans maniérismes, qu’on ne peut être qu’à ses pieds. Et bravo pour le par cœur, ça change tout de voir la joie dans votre visage et le message directement exprimé. Vous surclassez toutes les interprétations que je connais de cette sublime musique. Chapeau bas!
What a beautiful voice. I felt like my ears are gently washed by a stream of fresh water coming from a mountain covered by snow. A pure treat. Thank you.
Serious props to the cellist! I heard the soprano as too emotional and warm, perhaps needing to take it down a notch with the flutter vibrato, IMO. Maybe IMO a more theatrical voice suited to Handel?
@@DonVueltaMorales Interesting. To my ear, the vibrato is ideal, not obtrusive; and if anything, Miss Sampson could have been even more theatrical, a quality which is eminently suited to both the sacred and the secular cantatas of J.S. Bach. I should be sorry to think that his music should be to any extent cold and emotionless, as your comment seems to imply that it should. This is, after all, a cantata celebrating a wedding, and a warmer and more emotional event would be difficult to imagine. Forgive me if I have misunderstood your comment.
@@jasonhurd4379 A "wedding" as in the spiritual union of the soul and Jesus ("as Christ loved the Church"). Bach's audience in Leipzig would probably not have been exposed to too many Italianate operatic singers and probably been a bit behind the stylistic curve of Vienna, Dresden, or Hamburg. The Germans themselves were the _Singspiel_ people who didn't have a desire to hear full-blown opera in their own language. I guess those are my bases for wanting to hear this a bit plainer. I think the vibrato, especially at the ends of some phrases, sounds almost like an improvised ornament. And the recitatives might also have been more direct. But, I'm being picky, and in reality, I mean, what's not to like about the Bachstiftung?
One of the best performances of this gem of a solo cantata. The progression from the haunting and chromatic opening to the jocund gavotte reflects the possibility of human bliss. Superbly sung and played.
I have long admired Sampson for her Purcell recordings but have not heard her wonderful Bach before. I thrill to see excellent but less known artists working with Bach Stiftung, but this is absolutely stunning! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this very nice performance, Maestro Lütz. Mrs Sampson's virtuosity is amazing; she's really living her 'character' and seems to charm everyone with her smile!
The final gavotte is an absolute gem the way it is played, not to mention the wonderful performance of Carolyn Sampson and all the musiciens of the orchestra
Ora se uno pensa a quante cantate, parecchie, secolari di JSBach ed ai suoi concerti e quant'altro, abbiamo perso si incavola Perche' se sono capolavori al livello di questo!
Merci pour cette belle découverte, je ne la connaissait pas. Belle interprétation servie par des artistes sensibles à la musique de Bach... Amitié de France.
This is my favorite Bach piece. I have a CD from Elly Ameling with the Deutsche Harmonia Mundi, which I find the best recording of this piece. However, Ms. Sampson does an incredible version in her own right. Absolutely lovely!
What a voice! What a performance! Of such fetching excellence, I daresay, as to succeed in stirring the great composer to arise from his grave and prance spritely and approvingly, to the cadence of the gavotte….!
"Weichet nur, betrübte Schatten" (littéralement traduit par "Disparaissez maintenant, ombres lugubres") est une cantate sacrée de Johann Sebastian Bach. La cantate a été composée pour le troisième jour du Festival de Pâques de Leipzig en 1725 et a été jouée le 2 avril de cette année. La cantate est structurée en onze mouvements, dont une sinfonia d'ouverture (une introduction instrumentale), sept arias (solos) pour différentes voix, deux récitatifs (passages ressemblant à des discours) et un choral final. Le texte de la cantate a été écrit par Georg Christian Lehms et reflète l'histoire pascale de la résurrection de Jésus-Christ et sa signification spirituelle pour les croyants. La cantate s'ouvre sur une sinfonia joyeuse et triomphale, qui donne le ton pour le reste de l'œuvre. Les airs et récitatifs suivants explorent divers aspects de l'histoire de Pâques, tels que le chagrin des disciples lors de la crucifixion, l'émerveillement et la joie des femmes qui ont découvert le tombeau vide, ainsi que l'espoir et le réconfort que la résurrection apporte aux croyants. La musique de Bach se caractérise par ses mélodies expressives, ses harmonies riches et son contrepoint complexe. Les airs présentent une ornementation élaborée et des lignes vocales virtuoses, tandis que l'accompagnement instrumental est souvent complexe et très expressif. "Weichet nur, betrübte Schatten" est considérée comme l'une des cantates les plus importantes de Bach et est fréquemment jouée et enregistrée aujourd'hui. C'est un chef-d'œuvre de la musique sacrée baroque et un témoignage de la maîtrise de la composition de Bach.
I grew up with the fine old Archiv recording of this cantata with Maria Stader, and know every note and every word. Usually the first good version you hear of any work defines it for you, but this wonderful performance surpasses it by a long way.
Herr Lutz looks like he's having so much fun during this. Such a delight to watch this performance. If anyone can listen to Sich üben im Lieben without a smile, they're not human. hah Every performance is just amazing. I've been listening to your UA-cam videos for months now, and can't wait to see if there's a new upload each week. Seeing you all perform is now on my "Bucket List" - I will see you one day! @Bachstiftung Who is this amazing oboist? As much as I love your vocalists, your instrumentalists are outstanding and a joy to watch. I want to know more about who they are!
Thank you for your kind words! We would be very happy to see you at one of our concerts! You can always find all the instrumentalists listed on "Bachipedia". Please visit: www.bachipedia.org/en/works/bwv-202-weichet-nur-betruebte-schatten/
This is a wonderful performance in every way. Would anyone be interested in hazarding a guess about the average age of those attending this concert and in doing so make a statement (or a prediction) about the future popularity of this kind of music?
I would predict that the future audiences will be about the same size, same age, and same hair color (or lack thereof). I heard Elly Ameling sing this piece 50 years ago, and the audience was primarily "mature" folks. Old people are a renewable resource!
Given that this music was composed ~250 years ago and this performance was from 2 years ago, I think it's quite safe to assume we don't need to worry about it dying out anytime in our lifetimes.
Delightful performance! Given the negative connotation of the English word "lust", it’s interesting to see that the libretto of this cantata contains the German word “Lust", or delight! ❤️👍🏻👌👏🎼🎵

The English _lust_ originally had the same meaning as the German _Lust._
This seems to me an extraordinary statement, quite difficult to understand. "Inelegant" and "unmemorable": What are you exactly meaning? Do you have examples? I know many, many extremely elegant and memorable melodies, to be frank.
Johann Sebastian Bach hat sich ziemlich passabel im Lieben geübt, hat er doch von drei immer jüngeren Gattinen ein Duzend (oder mehr ?) Kinder gehabt !
er hats nur zu zwei gattinnen geschafft :) - die erste ist nach 12 jahren ehe in seiner abwesenheit gestorben, ein jahr später hat er die sängerin anna magdalena wilcke geheiratet. insgesamt hatte er zwanzig kinder, von denen jedoch nur zehn älter als 5 jahre geworden sind...
Vibrato is the lifeblood of a vocalist's timbre: without it the tone goes dead and dull, without energy or sparkle. You have been listening to too many 'Earlie Musicke' sopranos, my friend.
@@jasonhurd4379 Probably, yes, like Emma Kirkby, for example. Because straight intonation gives me goosebumps. Everyone is different. Vibrato, is probably good for giving power to more lyrical works, like those of Lully or Rameau.
Da kommt richtig Partystimmung auf! So stell ich mir eine Hochzeitsfeier in der Geriatrie vor: klingt wie direkt aus der Casa Verdi. Damit ist nicht das durchwegs ältere Publikum, sondern vor allem die Solistin (wohlgemerkt: nicht ihr Erscheinungsbild) gemeint: Da klingt der Text «Sich über im Lieben, im Scherzen sich herzen …» etc. wie eine Persiflage. Vielleicht gibt es ja wirklich noch ein erfülltes Liebesleben im stimmlichen Alter. Mit Bach hat dies allerdings nichts zu tun!!!
It's a real party atmosphere! So I imagine a wedding celebration in the Geriatrie: sounds like directly from the Casa Verdi Milano. This doesn't mean the older audience, but the soloist (not her appearance): The text «Sich üben im Lieben, im Scherzen sich herzen ...» etc. sounds like a persiflage. Perhaps there really is still a fulfilled love life in the vocal age. But this has nothing to do with Bach!!

This was played at our wedding in 1979. Thank you!!
superbly sung, and all from memory... enchanting
What a wonderful sweet voice and beautiful woman is the soloist! Sometimes the music is so sweet and beautiful I can't help but cry tears of joy.
Bach is the supreme artist. No one comes close!
Wow wow wow... what a blessing to have this performance on UA-cam!
Ich weiß warum ich hier mein Abo hab ... wunderbar! Vielen dank
Superb!!
Wunderbares, klares und frisches Konzert! Danke für‘s Teilen!

brilliant oboist!! These are really hard fingerings.
I have long admired Sampson for her Purcell recordings but have not heard her wonderful Bach before. I thrill to see excellent but less known artists working with Bach Stiftung, but this is absolutely stunning! Thank you.
One of my favorite Bach solo cantatas. And what a performance! Awesome.
Filled with care, I can rest momentarily in this Joy. Grateful.
Splendid as always when Herr Lutz is present!
One of Bach's loveliest cantatas in a great interpretation.
Un placer haber escuchado esta maravilla. Muchas gracias.
Just outstanding! I can't think of an ensemble with higher performance standards!
Thank you for sharing this very nice performance, Maestro Lütz. Mrs Sampson's virtuosity is amazing; she's really living her 'character' and seems to charm everyone with her smile!
This work is everything! And Carolyn Sampson understands Bach like NO other.

Bach knew all about the great weather metaphor - as Shakespeare did before him. Genius doesn't have to be complicated.
So Beautiful, thanks so much for sharing.

I'm a bassoonist and I played this Cantate with Elly Ameling in 1985
@@leopoldoarmellini1249 Wow, that's awesome!
@ottilierung444 for me it was a wonderful experience... Elly Ameling was an extraordinary musician. I have an indelible memory
@@leopoldoarmellini1249 Do you still play? I love music, but never had the opportunity to learn an instrument. I did sing in community choirs.

Fabulous, mille mercis du Canada.
I love Carolyn's sweet voice, one of the best last decades.
3:08 - Bach's wonderful peasant rhythms and fancies
Can someone more knowledgeable tell me what exactly I like so much about Sampson's singing? Her voice is so clean and crisp, and so enunciated!
Que dulzura la primer aria...y los arabescos del oboe......
I love the way this piece, as my viola teacher Christ Martin would say, comes through the window in the middle of the action
Excellent. Thanks to all.
Quelle merveille!
That was wonderful!
Sehr gut, danke.
Wonderful!!!
Bravo!!!
Bravi!!!👏👏👏👏👏

N'importe quoi ! Ce sont des hallucinations d'une AI. Cantate profane sans aucun rapport avec Pâques, bien évidemment.

A tour de force.
So pure and beautiful the voice is like a robust crystal vase - bravo my Botox wonder!
What is the date of the performance?
June 30, 2017.
Bach's renowned instrumental harmonies in this cantata seem to me not to be matched by his inelegant and unmemorable melodies .
