Gelobet sei der Herr, mein Gott, BWV 129
by Johann Sebastian Bach ; Bernhard Todt (arranger) ; Alfred Dörffel (editor)
This exceptional cantata was probably first heard at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig on June 16, 1726, though scholars cannot rule out it being composed for a festival later that year or early in 1727. The new digitally-enhanced vocal score presented here is reproduced from the series first issued to coincide with the monumental Bach Gesellschaft Ausgabe by Breitkopf und Hartel of Leipzig just over a century ago with keyboard reductions by Bernhard Todt.

Passacaglia in C minor, BWV 582

There have been several orchestrations of Bach's famous organ masterwork over the years, including some by notable conductors such as Leopold Stokowski, Eugene Ormandy, Rene Leibowitz, Andrew Davis plus a couple by composers: Ottorino Respighi and the one offered here by the Russian Aleksandr Gedike. The exact date of Gedike's orchestration is unknown but could date from before the Russian revolution of 1917 which would make it one of the earliest orchestral settings.
