The cantata Daran erkennen wir, dass wir in Ihm bleiben is intended for the first Whitsun holiday. It is based on a text by Johann Christoph Wentzel (1659-1723), the yearly volume in which it appears dates to August 4, 1703 and is dedicated to, among others, Hn. Joh. Kuhnau / | Chori Musici bey der | Stadt Leipzig Directori [Herr Joh. Kuhnau / Director of Choral Music at the City of Leipzig]. It can be assumed that Kuhnau's composition originated near the time of the text, thus within his first years in office as the Leipzig St. Thomas cantor. Kuhnau follows the structure of Wentzel's poem in a Dictum and four verses with introductory sonata, although some details are varied. In comparison to other works by Kuhnau, the scoring is fairly large with five vocal parts, trumpets, timpani, oboes, and bassoon as well as two violins and violas each. The short performing time, on the other hand, makes the cantata suitable for liturgical use, too.Audio samples: Opella Musica, camerata lipsiensis, cond. Gregor Meyer (cpo, 2013).

3 saxophones (SABar), trumpet, trombone, piano, marimba, percussion, violin, e-guitar and bass guitar. This is dancing music. The use of a ground bass suggests formal Baroque models but the shifted beats and polyrhythms also evoke Latin American, and near the end, 'techno' dance music.

Recorded in 1998 by the Monday Night Big Band on their Thanks To Thad album, this is Part 3 of Thad's larger Return Journey Suite. It features lots of powerful writing for the full ensemble and abundant solo opportunities -- an open solo section for alto, tenor, trumpet and/or trombone, and piano and/or guitar. After a loud shout, a series of short drum solos lead to a strong finish. Duration 5:30.
