Bach Cantata Series: Solo Cantatas

Johann Sebastian Bach's church cantatas are often considered the pinnacle of German sacred music, works whose theological depth and emotional resonance touch deep places in the human soul. This year, we follow Bach through the various stages of his career, from his earliest appointments in Arnstadt and Mühlhausen, to Weimar, and to the culmination of his work in Leipzig. Each place and each employment offered Bach different opportunities to focus his creative energies. The theme of this concert is "Leipzig III: Solo Cantatas" and features these cantatas:

* Ich habe genug (BWV 82)
* Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen (BWV 56)
