Chorale from Cantata No. 43 for
Ascension Day
Tonight's programme illustrates several aspects of Bach's genius: the exultation of much of his religious music is represented in the motet; the brilliance of his instrumental music in the concerto; the tender sentiment of some of his more intimate compositions in the songs. The whole Is appropriately framed by movements from two of the church cantatas.
The motet, ' Praise the Lord,' has words taken from Psalm 117. Much of the vocal writing consists of vigorous, swirling phrases, and it ends with a triumphant ' Hallelujah.'1 The Concerto in D minor is the best known and the finest of the seven harpsichord concertos by Bach. The two songs (which tonight are sung in French) come from the book compiled by Anna Magdalena , the composer's second wife. Bist du bei mir ' is well known, and is a singularly touching love-song. With the ' Edifying reflections of a smoker,' we encounter Bach in his domestic surroundings; and he characteristically compares the smoke and fire of his clay pipe, so soon burnt out, with the transitoriness of human existence.
