Johann Sebastian Bach : Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme (Chorale)

Name: Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme (Chorale)
Channel: Johann Sebastian Bach
Description: In Bach’s cantata “Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme,” the impression of a musical call is created primarily by the constantly recurring dotted rhythms in the opening chorus. The chorale melody serves not only as a spiritual foundation but also as a connecting element between the festive orchestral passages and the lyrical dialogs of the solo voices.
