Brandenburg Concerto No. 1. in F Magnificat in D
On the great Feast Days it was customary, at St. Thomas's, Leipzig, for an elaborate setting of the Latin text of the Magnificat to be sung after the sermon. Bach's setting, which is an extended work resembling a cantata, was probably written for the evening service of Christmas 1723. during his first year as Cantor at Leipzig. It is designed for five soloists, five-part chorus, and an orchestra containing trumpets and drums. The work consists of six choruses, five arias, and a duet, and the emphasis is on jubilation. The Magnificat will be broadcast again tomorrow at 8.30 (Third).
