| Cantata BWV 179 “Siehe zu, dass deine Gottesfurcht Heuchelei sei” – 11th Sunday after Trinity; Cantata BWV 35 “Geist und Seele wird verwirret” 12th Sunday after Trinity; Cantata BWV 164 “Ihr, die ihr euch von Christo nennet” – 13th Sunday after Trinity; Cantata BWV 17 “Wer Dank opfert, der preiset mich” – 14th Sunday after Trinity La Petite Bande/Sigiswald Kuijken A few years ago Sigiswald Kuijken and his Ensemble La Petite Bande decided to perform Bach’s vocal works only with one singer per register. Joshua Rifkin’s well-founded scientific researches, which he started at the beginning of the 1980s, revealed that Bach was accustomed to compose his music for a vocal quartet. The controversy on this thesis is still lasting, but the enthusiastic reviews of the specialized publications as well as – first of all – the convincing artistic results agree with Sigiswald Kuijken and his approach. The project is not conceived to produce an integral of all cantatas, but it shall be recorded one cantata for every Sunday and high feasts of the liturgical year. |
