ĂąâŹĆThe Glagolitic MassĂąâŹÂ, one of the 20th century masterpieces of sacred music, has a very complex genesis and constitutes an intricate editorial challenge. This new critical edition presents two different versions of the work in two separate volumes (B/5-I, BA 6862 und B/5-II, BA 6863): the ĂąâŹĆSeptember 1927ĂąâŹÂ version which the composer completed before the first rehearsals and subsequent premiere in Brno and the version he partly reworked for the first Prague performance in April 1928. This second version was then revised further and published after JanacekĂąâŹâąs death by Universal Edition Wien in 1930. Known as the ĂąâŹĆfinal authorised versionĂąâŹĆ, it has been newly edited for this publication which is based on the engraverĂąâŹâąs copy of the score prepared by JanacekĂąâŹâąs regular copyist VĂÂĄclav Sedlacek. The new Barenreiter edition also contains an informative preface (Cz/Eng/Ger/Fr/Ru) as well as detailed critical commentary. The ĂąâŹĆSeptember 1927ĂąâŹÂ version can be seen more as a supplement and appears without text commentary.

The cantata Nun danket alle Gott (Now thank we all our God) BWV 192 is based on the text of the well-known hymn. It is therefore one of a small number of chorale cantatas which contain no free poetic texts. Correspondingly, there are no recitatives either. It has only recently been assumed that this three-movement work was not intended for Leipzig, but was actually written in 1730 for Bach's prestigious position as Kapellmeister of Saxe-Weissenfels. The court of Duke Christian enjoyed the its sojourn in the newly-renovated castle of its secondary residence in Sangerhausen and, at Trinity, in the court church, celebrated the anniversary of its consecration with festive music. Bach evidently occasionally contributed to this. The work does not survive complete. Even in the 18th century a full score evidently no longer existed, just a set of parts, the tenor part of which is entirely missing. For the new edition the missing part has been reconstructed by Detlev Schulten (Leipzig). Score and part available separately - see item CA.3119200.
