Cantata 45 ‘Es ist dir gesagt, Mensch, was gut ist’ was written for the 8th Sunday after Trinity, 11 August 1726. The theme of the cantata is man’s obedience to God’s will. The believer is summoned to humility in word and deed, and to subordination as a servant of his master. In reward the obedient Christian is offered divine protection. In this context a threat is appropriate, and the tenor aria (No.3) includes the words ‘Qual und Hohn drohet deinem Übertreten!’, while in the next aria (No.5) the alto sings ‘Denn der muss ewig brennen, der einzig mit dem Mund Ihn Herren nennt.’ The tenor sings his words to a restless coloratura while the continuo plays a most fidgety bass line. Composer: Johann Sebastian Bach Artists: Netherlands Bach Collegium, Pieter Jan Leusink (conductor), Holland Boys Choir, Knut Schoch (Tenore), Bas Ramselaar (Basso) & Sytse Buwalda (Alto) 🎵Online purchase or streaming (Spotify, iTunes, Amazon Music, Deezer): 🎬🎮 These tracks are available for sync licensing in videos, films, tv-shows, games, advertising and more.
