| Added by magataganm, 13 Jul 2016 "Bist du bei mir" (If you are with me), BWV 508 is an aria in the 1725 Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach (No. 25). It was therefore attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach, but the melody is part of the Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel opera Diomedes, oder die triumphierende Unschuld that was performed in Bayreuth on November 16, 1718. The opera score is lost. The aria had been part of the Sing-Akademie zu Berlin music library and was considered lost in World War II until it was rediscovered in 2000 in the Kiev Conservatory. The continuo part of BWV 508 is more agitated and continuous in its voice leading than the Stölzel aria; it is uncertain who provided it, as the entry in the Notebook is by Anna Magdalena Bach herself. In an essay in the Bach-Jahrbuch 2002, Andreas Glöckner speculates that either she obtained the song from the inventory of the Leipzig Opera that had gone bankrupt in 1720, or that it was simply a favourite known to nearly everyone in Leipzig that was particularly suitable for Hausmusik Source: Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bist_du_bei_mir). I created this arrangement for Flute & Cello. Sheet central : | Petit livre d'Anna Magdalena Bach (79 sheet music) | | |||
