Truly. The perfect fusion of science, technology, engineering and math learning and advancement with art.

Pure beauty ! So grateful that I found the Netherlands Bach Society's channel on CZcams. It is my every day's moment of bliss... Bach is the master of masters...
Absolutely! It has been my "go to" channel for a good 7 years now. The best channel on CZcams, hands down (though I also highly recommend avrotros klassiek. They have the NBS anniversary concert/performance there which I really, really love)
Just came across this at 9 am on a cold Friday morning! What a find! Once again amazing quality from Netherlands Bach Soc. Notice the smiles of several singers/instrumentalists as they perform!! No wonder!!

The bassist gets a real workout in this one! And good to see Leo van D rockin’ the portative! Speaking from an organist’s perspective, An excellent performance overall. Bravo.
One of my favourite lutheran hymns in the wonderful adaption by Bach performed by the very best Bach ensemble there is. Thank you very much, God bless you!
Always always truly stunning. Such fabulous musicianship and exhilarating performances. A brilliant ensemble. Externally grateful to be able to acesss!
Shunske Sato manages to drill down to the joy expressed in even the most militant of Bach's cantatas. The complexity of the counterpoint arrangement in the opening chorus simply defies the limits of human artistic capability. BWV 80 is just another of innumerable examples as to why J S Bach is harmony's immortal god.
Yes. I love Bach's music (i got married on his birthday with all Bach music ) He takes the counterpart that any composer would be proud of ..and then adds 2 more voices.
Love the use of original instruments (without the 'added brass' - though I am a trumpet player). Brings out the dialogue between strings and choir even better this way!
Dass war vor 45 Jahren im Kirchenchor mein erstes Werk mit Orchester. Ich war 13. Seitdem ist Bach ein Stück meine Lebens. Inzwischen habe ich die Matthäuspassion exakt 50mal mitgesungen.
¡¡¡Fabuloso!!! Excelente versión, excelentes cantantes, instrumentistas y director. Una de las cantatas más complejas y hermosas de Bach. Un sincero saludo desde Argentina.
Bach's remarkable counterpoint skills are perfectly showed in this particular Cantata, I can honestly say that this Cantata is absolutely one of the Countpoint miracles in the whole Music literature, thanks so much for this NBS, well performed!
Lebhafte und wunderschöne Aufführung dieser fein komponierten Kantate mit gut harmonisierten Stimmen des ausgezeichneten Chors und herrlichen Stimmen vierer genialen Solisten sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Originalinstrumente. Der intelligente und unvergleichliche Violinist/Dirigent leitet das ebenso ausgezeichnete Barockorchester im rhythmischen Tempo und mit effektiver Dynamik. Wunderbar vom Anfang bis zum Ende!
Thanks so much for posting this! I was lucky enough to catch Netherlands Bach Society’s performance of this in Nikolaikirche at the 2022 #BachfestLeipzig. I didn’t know one could give a standing ovation in a church, but it was certainly well-deserved! It was my first trip to Germany (and Europe too) and I got to visit the old burgs which have intact stone walls from the past. These walls are a massive impenetrable mesh of stone that protected the townfolk. It struck me then that what Bach is doing is creating such a wall using a mesh of phrases from Luther’s hymn. This “wall of Bach” is rather intimidating at first, but once grasped offers us an amazing protection against the mediocrities of the world we live in
Oh, please stop with the naive, romantic speculation. Bach isn't creating a "mesh of phrases." He's simply doing what is normally done in a cantata setting of a chorale: each movement presents a different stanza of the chorale. It has nothing to do with walls or protection. FYI, the German word _Burg_ means "fortress."
@@herrickinman9303 I don't want to spend too much time challenging your ignorance but wish to bring up a couple of facts: When I look up the definition of "burg" I get "an ancient or medieval fortress or walled town." Which is what I was referring to. As far as the structure of BWV 80, it uses the four musical phrases arranged contrapuntally. Here's a wonderful musical, structural analysis: czcams.com/video/eTq3gszPsIQ/video.html . YOu may now return to your own safe and insulated state of ignorance.
@@HDougMatsuoka You can challenge a person's beliefs, but ignorance is merely a lack of knowledge or information. You cannot challenge a lack of knowledge or information. Perhaps you need a quick refresher course in English grammar and composition. I already tried to enlighten you by explaining that the German word _Burg_ means FORTRESS. Furthermore, the literal English translation of _ein feste Burg ist unser Gott_ is "a mighty FORTRESS is our God." In your original comment, you didn't specify a particular movement. You wrote, "It struck me then that what Bach is doing is creating such a wall using a mesh of phrases from Luther’s hymn." I naturally assumed you were referring to the entire cantata, and I correctly pointed out that each movement of the cantata sets a different STANZA (not a different "phrase") of the hymn. Now you explain that you were referring to the structure of chorale fantasia, not the structure of the cantata. You merely assume you know more about this chorale fantasia than I do. You flatter yourself, undeservedly. I was well aware of the contrapuntal structure of the chorale fantasy long before I ever heard of you or Atkinson. What you refer to as "mesh of phrases" in order to serve your lame "burg" metaphor is simply fugato, imitation, stretto and canon --- all contrapuntal devices used Bach and other composers of his generation and earlier generations have used. Bach used these techniques in many other chorale fugues on hymns that have nothing to do with walls, "meshes of stones," walled towns or fortresses.
@@herrickinman9303 The contrapuntal use of different phrases of the hymn against each other is unusual in Bach's cantatas. And the burgs I visited in Germany were indeed walled towns. "Burg" doesn't mean fortress exclusively. Many words are like this, have several related meanings. It certainly can mean fortress, but also castle, and walled town. That's where we get the term "burger" meaning townsman, citizen, or sometimes pejoratively, someone rather complacently middle class. My point was that the dense counterpoint using "meshed" phrases might be a metaphor for the very impressive structure of these walls. It certainly struck me as such. I was going to suggest that you return to school to complete your education, but I doubt it would help given the failure of such the first time around.
I listened to the entire performance, concentrating on not missing a single moment. It was difficult to predict how the performers would present the phrases of this famous piece during the entire performance, based on my previous experience of listening to the cantata. Every performance was full of surprises and emotions. I am convinced that the world that Bach wanted to create is clearly visible on this performance.
I would love to hear Isabel Schicketanz perform Bach BWV 51. Her voice is enchanting and she has marvelous phrasing and breath support. 14:01 is the best tempo I have ever heard performed.
Wie self sind 18:33 is one of those stop-me-in-my-tracks arias. The voices of Thomas Hobbs (always good) and Franz Vitzhum (new to me; hopefully a regular in AllofBach) intertwine beautifully. And it's almost a trio, with Sato on violin. Love it!
I see multiple people complain about the clothing in this video. NBS tries to reach a broader audience by making the performances more accessible. Everyone can enjoy Bach. Also it sounds the same when it’s sang in formal attire.
HAHA! I never noticed their attire until reading your post and checking... After growing up in a somewhat stiff Reformed Calvinist Dutch-descended congregation- something like this performance would have been unthinkable back then. Thankfully I learned how to think it for myself!
For some reason I find myself listening/watching this every day, sometimes more than once, since it's been posted. And I really thought I disliked this hymn, after having to sing it so many times in school and church (fyi I was an atheist even as a child, but school, you know). There is something so sublime about this performance. It would absolutely be one of my top 5 Netherlands Bach Society recordings, except there are *so* many that are so superb, I have more like a top 50.
@@riddleofsteel9156 sorry to not reply sooner, I just saw your comment. These are not in any order, all are superb. And many more than this, Here is a smattering of my favourites - (1) The Goldberg Variations performed by Jean Rondeau.(2) Gleichwie der Regen und Schnee (3) Auf, schmetternde Töne, (4) All of the 'Cello Suites by NBS (I am a 'cellist, I can't pick one), (5) Schweigt stille, plaudert nicht, 'Kaffeekantate'
I didn't know this cantata before watching this video and i'm glad to have found this gem. Thank you, NBS, for this and all your excellent videos, all of which i enjoy very much. If you ever get the chance to re-master/release this I would suggest amplifying Wolf's voice a little bit, at least during "Mit unser Macht". Keep on Bachin'
These folks are obviously ENJOYING their performance- I'm enjoying it too! Not too bad for a bunch of Dutchies! Enjoyable and well played. Ja, goed werk, Piet! Fijne dikke vrouw, ja... Fijne zonen en dochters van de gereformeerde kerk! From Colorado USA🤠
This is a wonderful performance, one of the best by NBS! I enjoy it very much because of its polyphonic structure that brings lots of benefits in our adaption of this to us listeners.
In french " c'est un rempart que notre Dieu, une invincible armure" Psalm 46 Martin Luther experimented this psalm, for me, i recommend the great book of Luther : commentary on galatians, don't forget: the reform was the greatest spiritual awakening of history...and Bach, a genius
Yet another hit! And with a conductor who both plays and conducts. He must have unbelievable control over that choir cuz they look like a rebellious bunch. 😵💫 I always check for familiar faces, it somehow gives me comfort, so is it possible that the middle doublereed player is the same guy who played way back for the St. John Passion?
@@HavenDee28 ah ofcourse, completely overlooked 'doublereed' in your question🧐.That's Benny Aghassi, one of our core members and indeed also one of the musicians in the St John Passion.
Such a lively performance😊! It reminds me of the recording BY N. Harnonourt and Tölz Boys' Choir in the 70’s, which was as much lively and attractive as this.

Not many people I meet have such a good perspective on the world. Nice to see, Absolutely great time to be alive 😊🙏🏻
Please enjoy! Bach would not be happier to know someone appreciate his music !
É isso aí, meu querido!
Can we imagine living life without Bach ? Impossible thought !

Love the use of original instruments (without the 'added brass' - though I am a trumpet player). Brings out the dialogue between strings and choir even better this way!
In the opening chorale fantasia and the final chorale, there is no dialog between strings and the voices. The strings merely double the voices.

BWV80は昔から特に好きな曲🎵
今夜はこれを聞けて嬉しくて満足😍
If you're like me and remember there being trumpets and timpani in this cantata: They were added later by Wilhelm Friedemann Bach (thanks Google)!
I love it either way and since JSB loved to add 2 or more voices to the standard forms of the day, I don't think he would object to them.
What a wonderful performance! I love it!
