Johann Sebastian Bach’s masterful chorale cantata “Jesu, der du meine Seele” (BWV 78) is widely regarded as one of the most expressive works from his 1724/25 Leipzig cantata cycle. Written for the 14th Sunday after Trinity, the piece traces a captivating emotional arc from deep lamentation to joyful confidence: opening with a monumental, passacaglia-based chorus, moving on to the famously buoyant duet “Wir eilen mit schwachen, doch emsigen Schritten,” and concluding with an intimate final chorale.

Scored for SATB soloists, mixed choir (SATB), transverse flute, two oboes, strings, and organ, this composition offers ensembles a wealth of profound musical moments. Published by the renowned Carus-Verlag, this high-quality edition is available as a convenient digital score download—instantly accessible for your rehearsals and concert performances.
