To combine gratitude for peace fels, in 1713. The Duke's birthday celebrations often lasted several weeks, with noted composers, including Bach, with a prayer for peace - what ending could be more appropriate for Bach's last great choral work! supplying "tafelmusik." As Director of Music to His Highness the Prince of Ahalt-Cothen ( 1717-23), Bach had at his disposal many The libretto, by Salomo Franck (who also wrote many of Bach's sacred cantata texts) is the type of allegory excellent instrumental musicians. Practically all of his major instrumental works stem from this short period. The which is so often used in Bach's secular cantatas. The arias and choruses are sung by Diana, Pan, and wood nymphs, gamba sonatas were written ca. 1720. They are excellent examples of the German use of the gamba. Whereas French in honor of Duke Christian. The aria "Schafe koennen sicher weiden" is sung by Pales, the goddess of the flocks. and English composers wrote music which brilliantly probed the virtuosic possibilities of the instrument, most Ger­ She sings of the safety of a flock protected by a good shepherd (Christian). This beautiful aria is for soprano, with mans ignored these possibilities, and instead concentrated upon the gamba's particularly tender and expressive tone two recorders weaving gracefully above and continuo support on the bottom. quality. Bach's gamba parts, with a few exceptions, could as easily be played on some other instrument, technically speaking. When Bach would choose to write for gamba, it was in order to achieve a particular sound and texture which only the gamba could create. MOTET: "DER GEIST HILFT UNSRER SCHWACHHEIT AUF" is one of the six motets by S. Bach. J. SONATA IN G MAJOR During the Baroque period, the "motet" had assumed a secondary position to the "cantata." Motets were retained as choral introits for Sunday services, and Latin works by 16th and 17th century masters were usually chosen. The first of the three gamba sonatas, the Sonata in G Major ( BWV 1027), was originally written as a trio for two flutes and continuo ( BWV 1039). Bach skillfully rearranged the piece, giving the second flute part - trans­ However, on special occasions Bach was called upon to compose new motets. The occasion for the composition of posed down an octave - to the gan1ba, and the outer two parts to the harpsichord. this second version, the "Der Geist Hilft" was a memorial service for Rector Heinrich Emesti, held at the University of Leipzig on October In 24, 1729. Romans 8:26-27 and a hymn stanza by Martin Luther comprise the text for the three movements. The strict three-part writing is much more evident than it was originally. Each of he three voices is equal in import­ first of these is a sort of madrigal for double choir. ance. The gamba was not considered to be a solo instrument, and in fact accompanies the harpsichord in many passages. The second movement is written for four-voice choir in strict double fugue form. Here we see the sheer genius of the Bach who could adhere to a rigid compositional structure and still create an an1azingly beautiful SONATA IN D MAJOR and sensational musical whole. The motet ends with a simple harmonization of the chorale "Komm heiligen Geist, In the second, Sonata in D Major, the same trio style prevails in the first two movements. However, in the Herre Gott," expressing Bach's view of death in a final "Halleluja!" Andante and final Allegro, Bach switches style to that of solo gamba with accompaniment. Here the gamba comes more to the foreground, but still has to "grant equal time" to the harpsichord in the cadenzas in the last movement. There is much debate as to whether or not Bach performed his motets with accompanying instrw11ents. How­ ever, his handwritten parts for continuo and doubling strings, strings and winds are still in existence for "Der Geist Hilft." Far from obscuring the chorus, these instruments delicately enhance the vocal lines, and cast a new and "VERGNDGTE RUH, BELIEBTE SEELENLUST" BWV 170, is a solo cantata of unusual beauty for alto beautiful light on the work. voice, oboe d'amore, obbligato organ, and strings. The text, by an unknown author, reflects the scriptural passages of the 6th Sunday after Trinity. These express the Christian's despair at living in a sinful world, and his longing for the life after death. A remarkable number of sounds and textures are encompassed in this short work. The first aria is in the slumber-song style which Bach so often associates with the idea of death's peace. In contrast, the The MASS IN B-MINOR stands as the peak of J. S. Bach's musical output, in depth of both musical and spiritual following movements are verbal and musical tongue-lashings in their bitter painting of the world's sins. In a dra­ expression. As a testament of universal Christian faith, it stands unsurpassed. matic recitative, Bach reflects the strong words of the libretto with appropriate musical discords. An unusual twist Bach composed and adapted the sections of this work at widely separated times in his life. The "Sanctus" in the instrumentation of the second aria has the violins and violas playing the continuo line in unison, while the was composed in 1724, while the "Osanna," "Benedictus," and "Agnus Dei" were probably arranged for inclu­ organ acts as the solo instrument. sion in an unsuccessful attempt to gain a court appointment at Dresden. The importance of the organ in this and the final aria, where it plays an obbligato part, is probably due to Of the 23 different movements in the B-Minor, eight are rearrangements of older material from cantatas. Bach's some recent innovations in the organ of the Thomaskirche. Late in 1730, the "Riickpositiv" had been made genius is put in strong relief when one realizes that it would certainly have been easier to write new music, rather separate and independent of the "Hauptwerk," and provided with its own keyboard. This made it possible to have than rearranging existing compositions. However, Bach wanted these particular movements because of the mood or an obbligato organ line. Many of Bach's works dating from this period include solo organ passages probably de­ feeling which he was attempting to evoke. A good example is the use of the first chorus of Cantata 46, "Schauet signed to "show off" the improvements. doch und sehet" ("Behold and see if there be any sorrow like unto his sorrow"). In its original setting this In the second recitative, the mood changes from indignation at the world's sins to a feeling of serenity at the chorus is highly effective, but as the "Qui Tollis" of the Mass it attains a poignancy exceeding its original intention. prospect of meeting Christ. This leads directly into the last aria, a movement of unbounded joy. In contrast to the The same can also certainly be said of the "Crucifixus" and "Agnus Dei." quiet happiness expressed in the first aria, this last section is a jaunty dance of joy, reflecting the believer's excite­ It is a tribute to Bach's musical genius that a work as long and varied as the B-Minor contains such a remark­ ment at being united with God. able amount of cohesion. Bach was at a disadvantage compared to both earlier and later composers in this respect. The Renaissance mass was held together by the use of a cantus firmus common throughout all the movements, willie the mass of the romantic composer made use of thematic recurrence as a binding force. TI1e B-Minor Mass, on the other hand, makes use of many different Baroque forms. Some of these are: strict Netherlands poly­ phony ( Kyrie II); trio sonata ( Et in unum deum); concerted aria (Qui Sedes); massive fugal structures ( Kyrie I, Pleni sunt coeli); and even two movements built upon plainchant (Credo, Confiteor). Of course, it was Baroque practice to set each new textual idea with new musical material, and Bach did this admirably. In the larger perspec­ tive, the work is held together by the identical treatment of the "Gratias agimus tibi" and the "Dona nobis pacem."
