Bach - Cantata Herr Jesu Christ, wahr’ Mensch und Gott BWV 127 - Rademann | Netherlands Bach Society
Cantata Herr Jesu Christ, wahr Mensch und Gott – recorded here for All of Bach with Hans-Christoph Rademann – cites and paraphrases a funeral hymn by the theologian Paul Eber, a friend of Luther. A funeral may seem a gloomy occasion, but Eber weaves the promise of eternal life throughout his hymn. This cantata formed a grand finale to Bach’s second year in Leipzig. His plan for that year was to write a new cantata every week based on a chorale, and in the opening chorus of BWV 127 the melody is indeed heard in the sopranos, true to tradition. But the instruments answer with their own chorale: Christe, du Lamm Gottes, Luther’s hymn that is often regarded as the German Agnus Dei.
