Unlike most of Bach's other motets, "Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied" was not composed for a funeral service, but rather for a happy occasion, probably an anniversary. Unfortunately, no further details have survived, only the approximate date of composition 1726/1727 can be deduced from the sources. Bach's motet has rightly been described as "music about music"; right at the beginning, the exclamation "Singet, singet, singet" from one choir is answered with jubilantly sung melisma from the other choir!
