Darzu ist erschienen der Sohn Gottes (BWV 40): opening chorus

Today, we give a play-by-play of the opening chorus of this extravagant cantata, which was suggested to us by listener Riley. We talk horns, stretto, and... why you should listen to all different kinds of music. See this delightful work as performed by the Netherlands Bach Society: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLDTvI1RrgI Thanks to all our listeners! And this week, an extra thank-you goes to Riley for suggesting this cantata!
