Bach - Cantata Der Herr denket an uns BWV 196 - Van Veldhoven | Netherlands Bach Society

"One sunny day, Bach walked with his wife Maria Barbara to the lovely little church in Dornheim, carrying his latest composition 'Der Herr denket an uns', performed here by the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach. The church where Bach was to perform his latest piece was familiar territory, as it was where he had married Maria Barbara six months earlier. Their marriage was solemnised by a friend of the family, Johann Lorenz Stauber. Today it was Stauber’s turn to get married. As a wedding present, Bach composed a new cantata, for which he had carefully selected the text." It's a wonderful story, but its legitimacy is doubted. Recorded for the project All of Bach on May 16th 2015 at the Oostkerk, Middelburg.
