Bach - Cantata Ich steh mit einem Fuss im Grabe BWV 156 - Mortensen | Netherlands Bach Society

‘Ich steh mit einem Fuss im Grabe’, performed by the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach, opens with a Sinfonia that is dominated by a melancholy oboe solo. The first aria has an unusual construction. While the tenor already appears to be reconciled with his imminent death, the soprano cuts through his sorrowful notes with Johann Hermann Schein’s hymn ‘Machs mit mir, Gott, nach deiner Güt’. Recorded for the project All of Bach on February 1st 2014 at the Geertekerk, Utrecht.
