Among the most noteworthy events marking the Johann Nepomuk David centennial (100th birthday on 30 November 1995) is the discovery of an authentic organ manuscript from the estate of Gunter Ramin. David's score fell into oblivion after Ramin gave the first performance of the work in Leipzig's Thomaskirche in February 1932.

The present triptych follows the structure of the Italian overture fast, slow, fast. Its style is mostly ornamental, with two lively movements framing a rather contemplative central chorale.

The cantata O God, what glut of care and pain BWV 58, which Bach subtitled Dialogus and wrote for the Sunday after New Year, limits itself accordingly to the dialog couple consisting of soprano and bass; further soloists or a choir are not required. In the framing movements, the dialog takes on the form of a chorale arrangement: the soprano presents a cantus firmus whose words are consolingly commented on by the bass. Both the expansive chorale arrangements leave room for an aria which is framed by two recitatives. The cantata was composed for the Sunday after New Year 1727, but the received form is from a subsequent performance that took place six or seven years later. For this performance, Bach not only expanded the instrumentation but also replaced an entire aria. Later, he assigned the cantata to his annual cycle of chorale cantatas, probably due to its high proportion of chorales; this Sunday was missing in that annual cycle as there was no Sunday between New Year and Epiphany in 1725. Score available separately - see item CA.3105800.
