Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. It is evident from the sources that the cantata was written for the 3rd Sunday after Easter. The text, the identity of whose author is unknown, is based on the comparison between sadness and joy prescribed in the Gospel for that Sunday. This cantata has survived only in copies made after 1750, but undoubtedly the cantata dates from Bachs's years in Leipzig. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Répertoire / Soli SATB, SATB and Orchestra
