Cantatas by Johann Sebastian Bach

Thecantatas composed byJohann Sebastian Bach, known asBach cantatas (German:Bachkantaten), are a body of work consisting ofover 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 toMühlhausen, although he may have begun composing them at his previous post inArnstadt. Most ofBach's church cantatas date from his first years asThomaskantor and director of church music inLeipzig, a position which he took up in 1723.

Working for Leipzig'sThomaskirche andNikolaikirche, it was part of Bach's job to perform achurch cantata every Sunday andholiday, conducting soloists, theThomanerchor and orchestra as part of the church service. In his first years in Leipzig, starting afterTrinity of 1723, Bachregularly 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 fromthree annual cycles of cantatas for the liturgical calendar have survived. These relate to the readings prescribed by theLutheran liturgy for the specific occasion. The last known cantata was composedin 1745.

In addition to thechurch cantatas composed for occasions of the liturgical year, Bach wrote sacred cantatas for functions like weddings orRatswahl (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 theUniversity of Leipzig, or anniversaries and entertainment among the nobility and in society, some of themGlückwunschkantaten (congratulatory cantatas) andHuldigungskantaten (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 anddicta. Hymns were mostly set to theirLutheran chorale tune.His chorale cantata cycle contains at least 40chorale cantatas, each of these entirely based on text and tune of such hymn.

Titles of the cantatas

[edit]

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

Bach often wrote a title page for theautograph score and copies of the original parts. For example, he titled the parts ofAus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir, BWV 38, using a mix of languages to describe the occasion, theincipit, 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 afterTrinity 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

[edit]

Bach wrote more than 200 cantatas, of which many have survived. In theBach-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. TheList 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. Openingchorus
  2. Recitative
  3. Aria
  4. Recitative (orArioso)
  5. Aria
  6. Chorale

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

Bach used an expanded structure to take up his position in Leipzig with the cantatasDie Elenden sollen essen, BWV 75, andDie 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 theOld Testament, Part I reflects theGospel and Part II theEpistle.[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 ofWir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir, BWV 29. A solo movement beginsGott, 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 anobbligato 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 familiarHerz und Mund und Tat und Leben, BWV 147, or have complex vocal parts embedded in the concerto as inÄrgre dich, o Seele, nicht, BWV 186, in a form calledChoralphantasie (chorale fantasia). InNun komm, der Heiden Heiland, BWV 61, for the first Sunday inAdvent, the beginning of a new liturgical year, he rendered the opening chorus as aFrench overture.

Vocal

[edit]

Typically Bach employssoprano,alto,tenor andbass soloists and a four-part choir, alsoSATB. He sometimes assigns the voice parts to the dramatic situation, for example soprano for innocence or alto for motherly feelings. The bass is often thevox Christi, the voice of Jesus, when Jesus is quoted directly, as inEs wartet alles auf dich, BWV 187, or indirectly, as inO 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 hasrecorded 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 useone 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 atLeipzig, for example, while the space in thecourt chapel in Weimar was limited. One size of choir probably does not fit all the cantatas.

Instrumental

[edit]

Theorchestra that Bach used is based on string instruments (violin,viola) andbasso continuo, typically played bycello,violone (at the same octave)[5] andorgan. Acontinuo 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 asoboe,oboe da caccia,oboe d'amore,flauto traverso,recorder,trumpet,horn,trombone, andtimpani. In movements with winds, abassoon 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 theBaroque, for divine majesty and three trumpets for theTrinity. In an aria of BWV 172, addressing theHeiligste Dreifaltigkeit (Most holy Trinity), the bass is accompanied only by three trumpets and timpani.

In many arias Bach usesobbligato instruments, which accompany the singer as an equal partner. These instrumental parts are frequently set in virtuoso repetitive patterns calledfiguration. 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) andcorno da tirarsi.

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

Solo cantata

[edit]

Some cantatas are composed for a solo singer (Solokantate), asJauchzet Gott in allen Landen, BWV 51, for soprano, sometimes concluded by a chorale, as inIch 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 exampleConcerto in Dialogo, concerto in dialogue. An early example isTritt 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), andAch Gott, wie manches Herzeleid, BWV 58 (1727).[6]

Text of Bach's sacred cantatas

[edit]

Within theLutheran liturgy, certain readings from theBible were prescribed for every event during thechurch year; specifically, it was expected that anEpistel from anEpistle andEvangelium from aGospel would be read. Music was expected for all Sundays and holidays except the quiet times (tempus clausum) ofAdvent andLent; the cantatas were supposed to reflect the readings. Many opening movements are based on quotations from the Bible, such asSie werden aus Saba alle kommen, BWV 65, fromIsaiah 60:6. Ideally, a cantata text started with anOld Testament quotation related to the readings, and reflected both the Epistle and the Gospel, as in the exemplaryDie Himmel erzählen die Ehre Gottes, BWV 76. Most of the solo movements are based on poetry of contemporary writers, such as court poetSalomon Franck in Weimar orGeorg Christian Lehms orPicander in Leipzig, with whom Bach collaborated. The final words were usually a stanza from achorale. Bach'sChorale cantatas are based exclusively on one chorale, for example the earlyChrist 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.[7]

Periods of cantata composition

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

The following lists of works (some marked as questioned) rely mainly onAlfred Dürr'sDie 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

[edit]
See also:Early cantata (Bach)

Bach moved toMühlhausen in 1707 when he was 22 to take up an appointment as the organist ofSt. Blasius church (Divi Blasii). There is evidence suggesting that he composed a cantata as an audition piece for Mühlhausen, and this may have beenChrist 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:

Weimar

[edit]
Further information:Weimar cantata (Bach)

Bach worked inWeimar from 1708. He composed a secular cantata,Was mir behagt, ist nur die muntre Jagd, BWV 208, in 1713. The composition of cantatas for theSchlosskirche (court chapel) on a regular monthly basis started with his promotion toKonzertmeister in March 1714.[8] His goal was to compose a complete set of cantatas for the liturgical year within four years. The cantatas54 and199 were performed within the cycle but possibly composed earlier.

Köthen

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

Bach worked inKöthen from 1717 to 1723, where he composed for example theBrandenburg Concertos. He had no responsibility for church music, but his employerPrince Leopold did commission secular cantatas. Later in Leipzig, he derived several church cantatas from congratulatory cantatas, such asErfreut euch, ihr Herzen, BWV 66, for Easter from the birthday cantataDer Himmel dacht auf Anhalts Ruhm und Glück, BWV 66a.[9][10]

Even after he moved to Leipzig he retained his title ofFürstlich 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 cantataSchwingt freudig euch empor, BWV 36.1, believed to 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.[11]

Leipzig

[edit]

InLeipzig Bach was responsible for the town's church music in theThomaskirche andNikolaikirche and was head of theThomasschule. Church cantata performances alternated in the two churches for ordinary Sundays and took place in both churches on high holidays such asChristmas, 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 theUniversitätskirche St. Pauli. There is debate whether Bach performedWer 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 thePassions and theMass in B minor are inserted in the listing for comparison.

First cantata cycle

[edit]
See also:Bach's first cantata cycle

Second cantata cycle

[edit]
Main article:Bach's second cantata cycle

After Trinity of 1724 he started a second annual cycle of mainlychorale cantatas. The chorale was typically the chorale prescribed for that week (Hauptlied orWochenlied). These cantatas were performed even after his death, according toChristoph Wolff probably because the well-known hymns were appealing to the audience.[12]

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

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 earlyMühlhausen 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:

Third to fifth year in Leipzig

[edit]
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".[13] Cantatas for some occasions are not extant.

Between Trinity and Advent 1725 (apart from chorale cantatas):
Liturgical year from Advent 1725 to the last Sunday after Trinity 1726 (includes 18 cantatas byJohann Ludwig Bach (JLB)):

Picander cycle of 1728–29

Main article:Picander cycle of 1728–29

There is some circumstantial evidence that a complete fourth cycle of Bach cantatas, in scholarship indicated as thePicander cycle, may have existed.[13][31][32]

Parodies

[edit]

Bach sometimes reused an earlier composition, typically revising and improving it in a process calledparody. 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 cantata120a and again in Cantata29, 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 cantataEntfliehet, verschwindet, entweichet, ihr Sorgen, BWV 249a, to become theEaster 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 cantataEin Herz, das seinen Jesum lebend weiß, BWV 134, is a parody of six of eight movements of the cantata forNew Year's Day,Die Zeit, die Tag und Jahre macht, BWV 134a. Six movements of his congratulatory cantataDurchlauchtster Leopold, BWV 173a, form the cantata forPentecost Monday of 1724,Erhöhtes Fleisch und Blut, BWV 173, while a seventh movement was made part of the cantata forPentecost Tuesday of 1725,Er rufet seinen Schafen mit Namen, BWV 175.

Bach's fourshort masses are parodies of cantata movements; he used several movements ofSiehe zu, daß deine Gottesfurcht nicht Heuchelei sei, BWV 179, for two of them. When he compiled hisMass in B minor, he again used many cantata movements, such as a part ofWeinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen, BWV 12, for theCrucifixus of theCredo.

Oratorios

[edit]

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, theEvangelist, 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. TheSt Matthew Passion and theSt John Passion were intended to be performed onGood Friday, before and after the sermon. The six parts of theChristmas 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

[edit]
See also:Performance practice of Bach's music

Bach composed the cantatas and performed them, conducting from the keyboard. The choir was theThomanerchor, 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.[33]

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 theBach-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 cantataWie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern, BWV1, was selected as the first work to appear in theBach-Gesellschaft-Ausgabe, the first complete edition.[34]

In 1928,The New York Times reported the presentation in Paris of two secular Bach cantatas by opera sopranoMarguerite Bériza and her company in staged productions,The Peasant Cantata andThe Coffee Cantata.[35] In 1931 a recording was made of a performance ofChrist lag in Todes Banden, in Barcelona.

The number of performances and recordings increased in the decades after the Second World War. In the early 1950sFritz Lehmann recorded several cantatas with the Berliner Motettenchor and theBerlin Philharmonic. From 1953,Max Thurn conducted for the broadcasterNDR a series of Bach cantatas, with members of theNDR Chor and members of theNDR Sinfonieorchester.[36][37]Karl Richter called his choir programmaticallyMünchener Bach-Chor in 1954 and recorded about a third of the cantatas.

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

TheThomanerchor has sung a weekly cantata during the evening serviceMotette on Saturday.[38]The cantatas are also regularly performed on Sundays atHoly Trinity Lutheran Church, New York City, under the direction of the Cantor (currently Donald R. Meineke).[39]

Complete recordings

[edit]

While individual cantatas were recorded as early as the 1930s, a complete set was not attempted until the 1970s.

The Fifth Gospel

[edit]

In 1929 the Swedish bishopNathan Söderblom, a recipient of theNobel Peace Prize, called Bach's cantatas the Fifth Gospel.[42][43]
