Friede auf Erden. Reconstructed Bach cantatas
„Ehre sei Gott in der Höhe“ (BWV 197.1) , „Alles, was von Gott geboren“ (BWV 80.1), „Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied“ (BWV 190.1)
Johann Sebastian Bach’s unfinished works have a very special appeal. The music seems close enough to touch… and yet remains mysterious. What might these pieces have sounded like? Ehre sei Gott in der Höhe (BWV 197.1), Alles, was von Gott geboren (BWV 80.1) and Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied (BWV 190.1) have survived only as fragments, and yet fascinate us with their musical power.
The opening chorus of the New Year’s cantata, BWV 190.1, for example, is one of Bach’s most magnificent choral works. Carus has recently published reconstructions of these three cantatas, which attempt to reveal a previously unknown side to Bach. With their nuanced interpretations, the Vocalensemble Rastatt, the baroque orchestra Les Favorites and soloists Miriam Feuersinger, Terry Wey, Florian Sievers and Sebastian Noack, conducted by Holger Speck, show how these works might have sounded under the hand of the master.
