| Added by magataganm, 02 Jun 2015 Die Elenden sollen essen (The miserable shall eat), BWV 75, is a church cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach. Bach composed the cantata for the First Sunday after Trinity and first performed it in the service in the Nikolaikirche on 30 May 1723, to take up his position as Thomaskantor. From then he was responsible for the education of the Thomanerchor, performances in the regular services in the Thomaskirche and the Nikolaikirche, and until 1725 also for one of two services in the Paulinerkirche. He started a project of composing one cantata for each Sunday and holiday of the liturgical year, termed by Christoph Wolff "an artistic undertaking on the largest scale". The autograph score is written neatly on non-Leipzig paper, probably while Bach lived still in Köthen. A Leipzig chronicle, "Acta Lipsiensium academica", reported the social event: "... führte ... Hr. Joh. Sebastian Bach ... mit gutem applauso seine erste Music auf" (... performed ... with good applause his first music). "Good applause" means "great approval" rather than clapping of hands. A different translation renders the note as "... the new Cantor and Director of the Collegium Musicum, Herr Johann Sebastian Bach, who has come hither from the Prince's court of Cöthen, produced his first music here with great success." In the arias, the voice and the instruments mostly share the themes. The arias can be considered as a suite of French dance movements, This, the tenor aria "Mein Jesus soll mein alles sein" (My Jesus shall be all to me!) written as a Polonaise. Source: Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_Elenden_sollen_essen, _BWV_75) Although originally scored for tenor soloist, oboe, two violins, viola, and basso continuo, I created this arrangement for French Horn & Strings (2 Violins, Viola & Cello).
