  • Stadtkirche St. Michael Kirche Gehren
    Stadtkirche St. Michael Kirche Gehren Auch Gehren kann in seiner Geschichte auf mehrere Kirchbauten verweisen. Dort, wo heute die Stadtkirche St. Michael steht, befand sich ein Vorgängerbau, dessen erste Erwähnung aus dem Jahre 1521 stammt. Hier war Johann Michael Bach, der Schwiegervater von Johann Sebastian Bach, von 1673 bis 1694 als Organist tätig. Anfang des 18. Jh. wurde diese Kirche zu klein für die ständig wachsende Zahl der Gottesdienstbesucher, da mit dem Ausbau der fürstlichen Verwaltungsstrukturen als „Amt“ Gehren der Ort überregionale 1834 Bedeutung erlangte. Eine 1729 eingeweihte größere Kirche auf dem benachbarten Kirchberg stand allerdings nur 20 Jahre, dann fiel sie einem Brand zum Opfer. So wurde die Kirche am Markt bis 1830 genutzt. Dann riss man sie ab und erbaute an gleicher Stelle im klassizistischen Stil eine Neue. In der „kirchenlosen Zeit“ fanden die Gottesdienste in der Kapelle des Gehrener Schlosses statt. Der Kirchturm der neuen Kirche hatte zunächst eine ebene Plattform. 35 Jahre später erst erhielt er die heutige Spitze mit vier kleinen Ecktürmchen. 1895 wurde eine vom Hof-Orgelbauer Sauer gebaute Orgel installiert. Aus dem gleichen Jahr stammt auch die Kanzel. 1924 schenkte die Fürstin Marie von Schwarzburg- Sondershausen der Kirchgemeinde einige Kunstgegenstände aus der nicht mehr genutzten Schlosskapelle. Diese wurden dadurch kein Opfer der Flammen, die das Schloss 1933 zerstörten. Der etwas streng wirkende Altarraum erhielt in den 1960er Jahren seine heutige Form. In diesem Zusammenhang kam der von der Fürstin Marie gespendete Altar nach Jesuborn. 1917 mussten die drei Bronzeglocken – eine davon fast 450 Jahre alt – zur Einschmelzung abgeführt werden. Heute läuten nun an ihrer Stelle drei Stahlglocken.

  • Remes Essay NEW for ONLINE
    TEXTUAL ILLUSTRATION IN J.S. BACH’S SETTINGS OF O LAMM GOTTES, UNSCHULDIG Derek Remes Eastman School of Music [email protected] www.derekremes.com May, 2015 !1 J.S. Bach set the tune O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig six times in his surviving works. [slide 2] The settings range from early to late works, and vary widely in instrumentation, length, and complexity. Because this tune was always paired with the same text, we are afforded an opportunity to compare how Bach treated the same text in a variety of contexts. As we will see, Bach consistently used chromaticism, diminished seventh chords, and suspensions—that is, dissonance—at certain poignant words, implying that these techniques carried specific extramusical meaning in these contexts. These associations between text and compositional technique enhance our understanding of Bach’s musical vocabulary. [Slide 3] The text of O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig was written by Nicolaus Decius in 1531.1 There are three Low German hymns ascribed to him, each intended to replace portions of the Latin Ordinary: Hyllich ys Godt de vader (Sanctus), Allein Gott in der höh sei ehr (Gloria in excelsis), and O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig (Agnus Dei). These three texts are the oldest evangelical hymns, preceding Luther’s first chorale texts by almost a year.2 O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig is an expanded translation of the Agnus Dei, the more literal German translation being the text Christe, du Lamm Gottes, both shown in the table. Christe, du Lamm Gottes is paired with a different tune, which Bach set in the Orgelbüchlein as BWV 619, and again in the cantata Du wahrer Gott und Davids Sohn, BWV 23.

    The Eastman School of Music is grateful to our festival sponsors: The American Bach Society • The Westfield Center Christ Church • Memorial Art Gallery • Sacred Heart Cathedral • Third Presbyterian Church • Rochester Chapter of the American Guild of Organists • Encore Music Creations The American Bach Society The American Bach Society was founded in 1972 to support the study, performance, and appreciation of the music of Johann Sebastian Bach in the United States and Canada. The ABS produces Bach Notes and Bach Perspectives, sponsors a biennial meeting and conference, and offers grants and prizes for research on Bach. For more information about the Society, please visit www.americanbachsociety.org. The Westfield Center The Westfield Center was founded in 1979 by Lynn Edwards and Edward Pepe to fill a need for information about keyboard performance practice and instrument building in historical styles. In pursuing its mission to promote the study and appreciation of the organ and other keyboard instruments, the Westfield Center has become a vital public advocate for keyboard instruments and music. By bringing together professionals and an increasingly diverse music audience, the Center has inspired collaborations among organizations nationally and internationally. In 1999 Roger Sherman became Executive Director and developed several new projects for the Westfield Center, including a radio program, The Organ Loft, which is heard by 30,000 listeners in the Pacific 2 Northwest; and a Westfield Concert Scholar program that promotes young keyboard artists with awareness of historical keyboard performance practice through mentorship and concert opportunities. In addition to these programs, the Westfield Center sponsors an annual conference about significant topics in keyboard performance.
