Description:
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) composed his CANTATA NO. 10: MEINE SEEL ERHEBT DEN HERREN, BWV 10 in 1724 as part of his second cantata cycle since becoming Kantor at St. Thomas the previous year. Based on Martin Luther's German translation of the Magnificat from the Gospel of Luke, its seven movements, including the opening chorale fantasia, recitatives, arias, and concluding chorale, reflect the structure he most often used for his choral cantatas in this cycle. Moritz Hauptmann edited the cantata for the publication of the first volume of the Bach-Gesellschaft Ausgabe in 1851, which included the harpsichord and organ parts edited by Max Seiffert.
