| Ajoutée par magataganm, 26 Mar 2013 The Easter Oratorio (BWV 249), is an oratorio by Johann Sebastian Bach, Kommt, eilet und laufet (Come, hasten and run), first performed in Leipzig in 1725. The first version of the work was completed as a cantata for Easter Sunday in Leipzig on April 1, 1725, then under the title Kommt, gehet und eilet. It was named "oratorio" and given the new title only in a version revised in 1735. The "Easter Oratorio" (different from the "Christmas Oratorio") has no narrator but four characters assigned to the four voice parts: Simon Peter (tenor) and John the Apostle (bass), appearing in the first duet hurrying to Jesus' grave and finding it empty, meeting there Mary Magdalene (alto) and "the other Mary", Mary Jacobe (soprano). The fourth Aria (Mvt. 9) "Saget, saget mir geschwinde", the aria of Mary Magdalene, is based on words from the Song of Songs, asking where to find the beloved, without whom she is "ganz verwaiset und betrübt" (completely orphaned and desolate), set in the middle section as Adagio, different from the original. The words are close to those opening Part Two of the St Matthew Passion. Although this aria was originally written for solo Alto & period instruments, I created this arrangement for Woodwind Sextet (Flute, Alto Flute, Oboe, English Horn, Bb Clarinet and Bassoon).
