- Areté Singers present Bach's Dona Nobis Pacem from his B Minor mass BWV 232 at Trinity Lutheran Church, Pleasanton, CA on June 24, 2023. Music Director Timothy Echavez Salaver. Organist, Luke Wenceslas Mayernik
The final movement of the Mass in B Minor, Dona nobis pacem, recalls the music of thanks expressed in Gratias agimus tibi. This concluding choral movement in Renaissance style follows the Dresden Mass style. The Gratias agimus tibi movement is based on the first choral movement of Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir, BWV 29, with minor alterations because of the different text. The text appears on both the theme and the countersubject, here stressing "pacem" (peace) at the beginning of the line. By quoting Gratias, Bach connects “asking for peace” to “thanks and praise to God”. He also connects his Missa composed in 1733 to the later parts.
Dona Nobis Pacem
Grant Us Peace.
