BWV179 was written for 8 August 1723. A severe fugue (re-used by Bach in the Missa in G) preaches against hypocrisy, with dramatic halftones on falsche and Heuchelei. The opening phrase of the fugue is answered by its inversion, possibly suggesting the duplicity of hypocrites. An emotional tenor recitative is followed by a just as emotional aria, also later re-used by Bach. A bass recitative puts the publican from the gospel reading as an example before us. Then two oboes da caccia play an extremely moving melody while the soprano pleads for mercy. Again Bach used the music later, this time for the Missa in A. A remarkable chorale closes the piece, with a final line full of dissonance. Composer: Johann Sebastian Bach Artists: Netherlands Bach Collegium, Pieter Jan Leusink (conductor), Holland Boys Choir, Knut Schoch (Tenore), Bas Ramselaar (Basso) & Ruth Holton (Soprano) 🎵Online purchase or streaming (Spotify, iTunes, Amazon Music, Deezer): 🎬🎮 These tracks
