He used these in his cantatas. [148], The Bach chorales in the Neumeister Collection attracted the interest of organists even before they were published. Johann Sebastian Bach's chorale cantata cycle is the year-cycle of church cantatas he started composing in Leipzig from the first Sunday after Trinity in 1724. Bach Chorale No.3 Ach Gott und Herr BWV 255 The modern musician who may not be so familiar with music theory and harmonic analysis will still benefit from this edition of the Bach chorales as each chord is identified above the staff with modern chord symbolism. 1898 - Leipzig: In fact, the repertory of the German chorale may be said to have been completed in Bach's day. These cantatas are also the only ones for which Bach appears to have collaborated with this librettist. [139] The collection contains 40 chorales with a BWV number:[10]. [5], The first Sunday after Easter, Quasimodogeniti, concludes the Octave of Easter, and the next Sunday is called Misericordias Domini:[3]. [2] The five works by Neumeister's own music teacher, Georg Andreas Sorge, were a later addition. iii. [12], The rediscovery of the Neumeister Collection quadrupled the number of keyboard works indisputably written by Johann Michael Bach, from eight to thirty-two, with six more arguably also his. [5][9], The Neumeister Collection contains 82 chorales, most of them unpublished before the 1980s re-evaluation of the Neumeister manuscript. Bach did not present much newly composed music for the Good Friday and Easter services of 1725. [13][16][17], The three editions of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV) that appeared in the second half of the 20th century gave little attention to the cycles of Bach's cantatas: the principles for assigning BWV numbers, as laid down by Wolfgang Schmieder for the catalogue's first edition in 1950, didn't result in the chorale cantatas being identifiable as a group or cycle in the catalogue. Possibly by J. M. Bach, the five anonymous preludes: The rediscovered manuscript prompted revisions to J. S. Bach's catalogue and reconsideration of his musical development. [137] This remains the case even if, as some have suggested, one of the chorales that appears under his name would have been composed by Johann Heinrich Buttstett. for Easter 3 and Trinity XXVI). A chorale was originally a Lutheran hymn sung by the entire congregation. Possibly the idea for writing a series of chorale cantatas was inspired by the bicentennial anniversary of the first publications of Lutheran hymnals (1524). Title Composer Bach, Johann Sebastian: I-Catalogue Number I-Cat. [4], Far from seeing a chorale cantata cycle tied to Bach's second year in Leipzig, Philipp Spitta, in the 1880 second volume of his Bach-biography, described the chorale cantata as a genre Bach only converged to in his later years. [19], In the 21st century Klaus Hofmann has termed the cycle "the largest musical project that the composer ever undertook: the 'chorale cantata year'". Russell Stinson, "Some thoughts on Bach's Neumeister Chorales" in, This page was last edited on 21 October 2020, at 04:39. As such these cantatas have consecutive "K" numbers in the chronological Zwang catalogue for Bach's cantatas published in 1982. That year the last Sunday after Trinity, that is the last Sunday before Advent, was Trinity XXV:[3], A new liturgical year starts with the first Sunday of Advent: when a cantata cycle is listed without taking the chronology of composition into account, this is where the list starts. [148] The B&H edition includes 35 chorale preludes of the Neumeister Collection: apart from the four BWV numbers not adopted in the NBA edition, it additionally omits BWV 1096 (likely composed by J. Philipp Spitta, in his 19th-century biography of the composer, praised the chorale cantatas, but failed to see them as a cycle tied to 1724–25. When the manuscript was rediscovered at the Yale University in the 1980s it appeared to contain 31 previously unknown early chorale settings by Johann Sebastian Bach, which were added to the BWV catalogue as Nos. Before we can dive into a study of Bach’s cantatas, we need to learn about an important element of Lutheran sacred music: the chorale. Also, some cantatas traditionally seen as belonging to the chorale cantata cycle are not chorale cantatas in a strict sense, for instance the cantata for the Sunday between New Year and Epiphany added to the chorale cantata cycle in 1727. Pachelbel). For most of the occasions that lack a cantata in the second cycle there are however extant chorale cantatas. [145] They provide a new window on his formative years as a composer and cast the chorale preludes in the Orgelbüchlein, previously considered his earliest essays in the form, in a fresh light: the Orgelbüchlein pieces are not the work of a precocious beginner, but of an already practised hand. The Neumeister Collection is a compilation of 82 chorale preludes found in a manuscript copy produced by Johann Gottfried Neumeister (1757–1840). The exact number of his settings is not yet fully determined, thanks to lost works (including cantatas), settings misattributed to Bach and the like. Bach for Breitkopf). Chorale Preludes, BWV 714-765 (Bach, Johann Sebastian) This page is only for complete editions and multiple selections from the collection here. The Great Eighteen Chorale Preludes, BWV 651–668, are a set of chorale preludes for organ prepared by Johann Sebastian Bach in Leipzig in his final decade (1740–1750), from earlier works composed in Weimar, where he was court organist. 707–714, Johann Sebastian Bach: His Work and Influence on the Music of Germany, 1685–1750, The New Bach Edition – Series I: Cantatas, The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, "Chapter 4 – The Most Ambitious of All Projects: Chorale Cantatas throughout the Year", https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chorale_cantata_cycle&oldid=998501423, Articles with dead external links from July 2019, Articles with permanently dead external links, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License, The chorale cantata apparently retained most, if not all, movements of the. see (or create) separate pages for individual works linked in the General Information section below.

[13] Like Spitta, Reginald Lane Poole (1882) and Charles Sanford Terry (1920) saw the chorale cantata as a development of the composer's later years, and failed to list more than a handful, leave alone a cycle, of such cantatas premiered between Trinity 1724 and Easter 1725 in their chronological lists of Bach's cantatas. In 1878 Alfred Dörffel described this incomplete cantata cycle in the introduction of the thematic catalogue for the first 120 cantatas published by the Bach Gesellschaft. Easter Season Chorales Discussions: Easter Season Chorales, Sacred Songs: William Hoffman wrote (April 11, 2018): As Easter season approached in Leipzig in 1724, Bach began planning for cantatas for the Easter season while he finished composing the St. John Passion. These two cantatas (BWV 128 and 68) are sometimes associated with the chorale cantata cycle,[3] especially the second one while it was included in the chorale cantata cycle that remained at St. Thomas until the 19th century.[4]. Although we have no account of the reception of Bach's chorale cantatas by the congregation in Leipzig, we know that some of these cantatas were the only works that the city of Leipzig was interested in keeping alive after Bach's death: his successors performed several of them. [4], Two chorale cantatas replacing other cantatas composed for occasions between Easter and Trinity 1725 also remained in the St. Thomas collection:[3][4], There is uncertainty regarding four additional extant chorale cantatas as to time of origin (narrowed down to late 1720s–early 1730s) and occasion, all of them using hymn text without modification, but none of them included in the chorale cantata cycle kept at St. Thomas:[3][4]. Another 1524 hymnal is the Erfurt Enchiridion: BWV 62, 91, 96, 114, 121 and 178 are based on hymns from that publication. Concerning the chorales composed by Bach, refer to Spitta's Bach, vol.

[3], Some time after 1807 the manuscript passed to Christian Heinrich Rinck (1770–1846),[4] whose library was bought by Lowell Mason in 1852. List of organ compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach § Neumeister Chorales (BWV 1090–1120). About half of the chorale harmonisations in this collection have their origin in other extant works by Bach. They were first performed privately by Wilhelm Krumbach at Utrecht in January 1985, and publicly by John Ferris and Charles Krigbaum at Yale in March. [1] After Doles, who was Thomaskantor until 1789, the practice of performing Bach cantatas in Leipzig was interrupted until Kantor Müller started to revive some of them from 1803. It is the only cycle of Bach cantatas that is recognisable as a group on that website. [citation needed] Five of them were already known from other sources: The other thirty-three were partly or wholly new: The Arnstädter Chorales are considered on stylistic grounds to be early works, probably dating from 1703 to 1707, when Bach was active at Arnstadt, and possibly even earlier. 159: Johann Sebastian Bach 1802 Sacred Motets 8 SATB.SATB In dulci jubilo, BWV 368: Johann Sebastian Bach 1535 Anonymous Sacred Chorales 4 SATB Jesu, Jesu, du bist mein, BWV 357: Johann Sebastian Bach 1736 Anonymous When the manuscript was rediscovered at the Yale University in the 1980s it appeared to contain 31 previously unknown early chorale settings by Johann Sebastian Bach, which were added to the BWV catalogue as Nos. [4], In 1724 the period of the Sundays after Trinity included St. John's Day (24 June), Visitation (2 July, that year coinciding with Trinity IV), St. Michael's Day (29 September) and Reformation Day (31 October). Even a merging of both cycles into one, with some occasions having two cantatas, which hardly can be seen as an intention of the composer, would still be missing a few cantatas (e.g. Johann Sebastian Bach 's earliest extant compositions, works for organ which he possibly wrote before his fifteenth birthday, include the chorales BWV 700, 724, … Bach's second year cycle of cantatas is complete apart from the cantatas for Christmas II, Epiphany IV–VI, and Trinity IV, VI, XII and XXVI–XXVII. There are some cantatas that belong to one of both cycles, but not to the other, for instance the chorale cantata for Trinity 1727 replaces the Trinity cantata of the second cycle composed in 1725. Some of these may have been intended for a wedding ceremony and/or as a generic cantata that could be used for any occasion. The most complete 18th century publication of chorales by J. S. Bach is Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's edition in four volumes, published by Breitkopffrom 1784 to 1787. Besides the four varied uses of the melody in Cantata 122, Bach blended or overlapped chorales from one season to the next. Bach composed a further 13 cantatas in his second year at Leipzig, none of them chorale cantatas, although two of them became associated with the chorale cantata cycle. Four chorale cantatas use text and/or melody of a hymn in that early publication (BWV 2, 9, 38 and 117). Scholarship later indicated the chorale cantata cycle as Bach's second cycle of church cantatas. The librettist of these cantatas is unknown, but is likely the same for all three. In the period following Johann Sebastian Bach's death in 1750, apart from the publication of The Art of Fugue in the early 1750s, the only further publications prior to the 1790s were the settings of Bach's four-part chorales.In 1758 Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg was the first to start preparing a published edition of Bach's four-part chorales, but in 1763 was prevented by royal duties. BWV 14, and 125 were based on hymns from Eyn geystlich Gesangk Buchleyn, also published in 1524. It is designed to make it easier to use one of music21’s most accessible datasets. Around 40 of these were composed during his second year as Thomaskantor in Leipzig, which started after Trinity Sunday 4 June 1724, and form the backbone of his chorale cantata cycle. [3], Newly composed cantatas, to make the year cycle complete up to Trinity Sunday, were no longer in the chorale cantata format, possibly because Bach lost his librettist, likely Andreas Stübel, who died on 31 January 1725. [4], Bach's early biographers (his son Carl Philipp Emanuel and Johann Friedrich Agricola in the Nekrolog and Forkel in his 1802 biography) gave little or no attention to individual cantatas, and confined themselves to mentioning that Bach had composed five complete cycles of church cantatas. [1] There the Neumeister volume lay as manuscript LM 4708 until it was rediscovered "early in 1984" by musicologists Christoph Wolff (Harvard), Hans-Joachim Schulze (Bach-Archiv Leipzig), and librarian Harold E. Samuel (Yale). Neumeister compiled his manuscript after 1790. 1–120, "Cantatas for the First Sunday after Trinity / St Giles Cripplegate, London", "6. 31 chorales, BWV 1090–1120, were assigned a number in the 1990 second edition of the catalogue. Neither the second cantata cycle, nor the chorale cantata cycle are complete annual cycles as extant. Wolff published the chorale preludes by J. S. Bach in 1985, and a facsimile of the complete collection in 1986. Weighing both textual and stylistic evidence, he proposes Johann Michael Bach as the author of all five, while allowing that one could also have been written by J. S. Bach and another by Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow. (English edition). Around the start of the Bach Revival in the 19th century, almost no manuscripts of Bach's music remained in St. Thomas in Leipzig, apart from an incomplete chorale cantata cycle. The St John Passion, which was a repeat performance of the previous year, now in the St. Thomas church (where Bach had initially attempted to stage its premiere), did, however, contain four new movements (BWV 244/29, 245a, 245b and 245c). Only three cantatas staged between Good Friday and Trinity of 1725 became associated with the chorale cantata cycle. The occasions for which these cantatas were written include Jubilate, Cantate, Rogate, Ascension, Exaudi, Pentecost, and Trinity:[3], None of the von Ziegler cantatas are chorale cantatas in the strict sense, although the Ascension cantata and the Pentecost Monday cantata open with a chorale fantasia. Two chorales of the first edition of the BWV catalogue are no longer generally associated with J. S. Bach: The other thirty-eight works are most often attributed to J. S. Bach, and are sometimes referred to as the Arnstädter Chorales. List of the Bach's Chorales settings, with different numberings.

In casual modern usage, this term also includes classical settings of such hymns and works of a similar character. [146] The 2018 last two volumes of Breitkopf & Härtel (B&H)'s new Urtext edition of Bach's organ works included them in alphabetical order, that is, together with other chorale preludes transmitted independently of the collections collated by the composer. Bach worked these chorales or hymn tunes into many of his church cantatas, and the three movements from Cantata 140 Wachet auf all make use of the chorale tune on which that cantata is based. [150], 82 chorale preludes in a manuscript copy produced by Johann Gottfried Neumeister, 21st-century editions of Johann Sebastian Bach's. [4] The period from Advent 1724 to Epiphany 1725 included Christmas (25 December), New Year (1 January) and Epiphany (6 January):[3], In Leipzig concerted music was not allowed for the second to fourth Sunday of Advent (silent time), so the next cantatas in the cycle are those for Christmas:[3], In 1725 the next occasion was Epiphany, while there was no Sunday between New Year and Epiphany:[3], There were six Sundays between Epiphany and Lent in 1725:[3], The three last Sundays before Ash Wednesday are called Septuagesima, Sexagesima and Estomihi. The Reformation Festival: BWV 80, 79", pp. [138] Wolff has proposed that the five unattributed works in the volume could also be by Johann Michael Bach—confidently in three cases, less so in the other two.[12].
