J.S. Bach: Tenor Recitative & Aria from BWV 21 | Nicholas Phan

Описание: Johann Sebastian Bach: Tenor Recitative & Aria from BWV 21
Ich hatte viel Bekümmernis

This video features the tenor recitative and aria from BWV 21 by Johann Sebastian Bach — a cantata written for the third Sunday after Trinity. "Ich hatte viel Bekümmernis" (I had much affliction) is one of Bach's most profound explorations of spiritual struggle and consolation. This baroque masterpiece showcases Bach's genius for translating human emotion into musical architecture — from the depths of sorrow to radiant hope. Through deeply expressive writing, Bach depicts the soul's journey from despair to divine comfort.

This performance is featured in Episode 15 of BACH 52, where the conversation explores themes of affliction, faith, and the transformative power of sacred music in times of trial.
