In good time for the Reformation anniversary year 2017, this edition offers four distinctive movements from Johann Sebastian Bach's Reformation cantatas in arrangements for choir and organ. From the cantata Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott BWV 80 the ornate opening chorus, the fifth movement 'Und wenn die Welt voll Teufel wär', with its impressive musical depiction of the battle between heavenly and evil powers, and the final chorale 'Das Wort sie sollen lassen stahn' are included. These are joined by the festive chorale 'Nun danket alle Gott' from the Reformation cantata Gott der Herr ist Sonn und Schild BWV 79. The transcription of Bach's orchestral writing for organ offers performers plenty of opportunity for artistic interpretation, and enables the movements to be performed in an attractive way even with limited resources.
