J.S. Bach: Schau, lieber Gott, wie meine Feind, BWV 153 - The Church Cantatas, Vol. 93

Cantata 153 ‘Schau, lieber Gott, wie meine Feind’ was written for the Sunday after the feast of the circumcision of Christ, the Sunday after new year’s day, 2 January 1724. At least, this is the only date upon which a performance of this cantata is recorded. The nine-movement work has no large-scale choral sections, but it does have three simple chorales (Nos. 1, 5 and 9), and three recitatives and three arias. The tenor aria in A minor (No.6) deserves special mention: here, a restless and virtuosic violin part and a somewhat jerky and jumpy tenor part illustrate the text ‘Stürmt nur, ihr Trübsalswetter’.
