Cantata BWV 25 - Es ist nichts Gesundes an meinem Leibe
Cantata BWV 138 - Warum betrübst du dich, mein Herz?
Cantata BWV 105 - Herr, gehe nicht ins Gericht mit deinem Knecht
Cantata BWV 46 - Schauet doch und sehet, ob irgendein Schmerz sei
Hana Blazikova (Soprano)
Damien Guillon (Countertenor)
Thomas Hobbs (Tenor)
Peter Kooij (Bass)
Collegium Vocale Gent
Philippe Herreweghe (Conductor)
The four cantatas selected by Philippe Herreweghe for this recording date from the first year of Bach s activity in Leipzig. Written at a tight pace between late July and early September 1723, they underscore the composer s obvious effort to establish original musical proposals. He continually showed musicians and listeners that he was not serving them routine cantor s music, but was writing sacred music as a true Kapellmeister. In this first volume of Bach cantatas for the PHI label, the Collegium Vocale Gent interprets some of the cantatas for the first time.
