Added by magataganm, 05 Jul 2015 Nur jedem das Seine (To each only his due), BWV 163, is a church cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach. He composed the cantata in 1715 in Weimar for the twenty-third Sunday after Trinity. The prescribed readings for the day were from the Epistle to the Philippians (Philippians 3:17--21), and from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 22:15--22). The librettist for movements 1--5 was Salomon Franck, who included the final stanza of Johann Heermann's hymn "Wo soll ich fliehen hin" (1630) as the last movement of this cantata. The opening aria features an unusual ritornello in which the strings assume a motif introduced by the continuo, which is then repeated several times through all parts. The movement is a da capo aria emphasizing dualism and debt. Craig Smith remarks that it is "almost academic in its metrical insistence". The work is scored for four vocal soloists (soprano, alto, tenor, and bass), four-part choir, two violins, viola, two cellos, and basso continuo, Source: Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nur_jedem_das_Seine,_BWV _163). I created this arrangement for English Horn & Strings (2 Violins, Viola & Cello). Sheet central : | Nur jedem das Seine (7 sheet music) | |
