Johann Sebastian Bach’s moving cantata "Liebster Gott, wenn werd ich sterben" (BWV 8, 1st version) is among the Leipzig master’s most poignant works, composed for the 16th Sunday after Trinity. With unparalleled musical depth, Bach transforms the Baroque meditation on mortality into a state of blissful comfort and profound hope. This high-quality vocal score from the renowned Carus-Verlag provides soloists (SATB) and mixed choirs (SATB) with an ideal foundation for both thorough rehearsal work and inspiring performances. The easily playable and transparent piano reduction provides optimal support for the singers while stylistically capturing the rich original orchestration of flute, oboes d'amore, strings, and organ. An indispensable edition for church musicians, choral directors, and admirers of Bach’s sacred vocal art.
