Description:
The wedding cantata BWV 197 draws on older material for some of its movements. Two movements are parodies on arias from the incomplete surviving Christmas cantata 'Ehre sei Gott in der Höhe', BWV 197a, including the lullaby 'O du angenehmes Paar', of which only the last quarter survives from the Christmas cantata - it is 'O du angenehmer Schatz' there. By using the later version, Diethard Hellmann has been able to reconstruct the original version of this dreamlike beautiful movement; however, the complete Christmas cantata cannot be reconstructed from the sources.
