Bach
composed his oratorio for
the Feast of the
Ascension in Leipzig in
1735. Though this work
has the duration of a
cantata, the choice of
text places it among the
oratorios. It combines
the biblical account of
the Ascension with
chorales and free
madrigal poems.
As in
other works which were
composed during this same
year (e.g. theChristmas
Oratorio), Bach reveals a
special fondness for
colourful orchestration,
with two flutes, two
oboes, three trumpets,
timpani and strings,
creating a splendid
Baroque sound with a
strikingly festive
character.
This
edition is based on the
thoroughly researched
musical text from theNew
Bach Edition.
