| Ajoutée par magataganm, 21 Fév 2014 Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel (1690 -- 1749) was a prolific German baroque composer. Stölzel grew up in Schwarzenberg, Saxony in the Erzgebirge. From 1707 he was a student of theology in Leipzig, and of Melchior Hofmann, the musical director of the Neukirche. He studied, worked and composed in Wrocław and Halle. Then an eighteen-month sojourn in Italy from 1713 — where he met Antonio Vivaldi in Venice — rendered him au courant with the latest musical taste. After working for three years in Prague, he became briefly court Kapellmeister in Bayreuth and Gera. Then in 1719 he married, and the next year took up an appointment in Gotha, where he worked until his death for the dukes Frederick II and Frederick III of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg, composing a cantata each week. Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 -- 1750) was a German composer, organist, harpsichordist, violist, and violinist of the Baroque period. He enriched established German styles through his skill in counterpoint, harmonic and motivic organisation, and the adaptation of rhythms, forms, and textures from abroad, particularly from Italy and France. Bach's compositions include the Brandenburg Concertos, the Mass in B minor, the The Well-Tempered Clavier, two Passions, keyboard works, and more than 300 cantatas, of which nearly 100 cantatas have been lost to posterity. His music is revered for its intellectual depth, technical command, and artistic beauty. Bekennen will ich seinen Namen (I shall acknowledge His name), BWV 200, is a church cantata composed in Gotha by Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel in 1720 and arranged by Johann Sebastian Bach around 1742. The cantata is a fragment, consisting of a single aria, likely written for the Feast of the Purification of Mary. The prescribed readings for the day were Malachi 3:1--4, and Luke 2:22--32. Bach likely performed his arrangement in 1742 in Leipzig and The surviving movement is scored for solo alto voice, two violins, and basso continuo. As with many of Bach's latest cantatas, the aria has a "quality of mellow assurance". It is in adapted ternary form but includes no clear reprise of the opening section. The vocal line includes melismas but no other word painting. Although originally written for Voice (Alto), Violins, and Basso Continuo, I created this arrangement for Oboe, French Horn and Concert (Pedal) Harp. | |||
