The
alto cantata Geist und
Seele wird verwirret has
seven movements; in the
opening movements of the
two parts of the cantata,
a lost concerto by Bach
survives in its original
form, which he had
arranged for organ. There
is also an obbligato
organ part in all the
three arias, sometimes
including virtuosic
writing. Lehms takes the
Gospel reading for the
12th Sunday after
Trinity, which deals with
the healing of a deaf and
dumb person, and makes it
apply more universally:
God wants to open the
ears of the faithful soul
and loosen its tongue, so
that it can praise his
wonderful works. Unlike
most of the other
cantatas, in line with
the text model Bach
avoids the use of a choir
for the concluding
movement of the work. The
cantata was written for
the 12th Sunday after
Trinity which fell on 8
September 1726 in the
year of its first
performance. The text
comes from the collection
Gottgefalliges
Kirchen-Opffer by Georg
Christian Lehms, who was
court poet and court
librarian in Darmstadt.
From his Weimar period
onwards, Bach set several
texts from this
collection. Score
