Johann Sebastian Bach : Grosser Herr und starker König
In the aria “Großer Herr und starker König,” Johann Sebastian Bach combines the festive character of the accompaniment with a comparatively calm vocal line, thereby emphasizing the dignity of the text more than mere virtuosity.
It is also noteworthy that the long sustained notes in the vocal part create a sonic stability that maintains the aria’s stately character even in the quieter passages.
