I seem to only be able to ride in the hot weather. When the nice weather comes, there is so much to do, that can't be done in the heat. I will go out tomorrow though, barring rain. It's been raining almost every day. For at least part of the day.

The Mrs. just told me that Merida is throwing caution to the wind and re-opening tomorrow. Everything. Bars. Restaurants. The works. I wonder how long that will last. The northern part of the country is getting hit hard at the moment.

For Bach? The bigger the better.
Dad woke us up every Sunday morning with Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, an old Columbia recording of E. Power Biggs, "Bach's Royal Instrument". Sounded pretty good through the church's sound system. Better than the old mono record player we heard it from....
So, at his memorial service last year, that's what we opened with. The 6 of us kids all smiled, even chuckled a little. But we had to explain it to those who hadn't had the privilege.

Other instrumentalists to watch in this video: Olivier Picon on corno da tirarsi, and Balázs Máté on violoncello piccolo. Only three cantatas (46, 162, and 67) show the full name corno da tirarsi written in the manuscript, but there are 27 cantatas from Leipzig requiring a corno in which that part is not playable on a natural horn, so must have been written for this corno da tirarsi as well. Cantata 115 is included in that group. Bach is the only composer who ever mentioned this instrument in writing, and most probably his principal brass player Gottfried Reiche was the only one who ever played it. After Reiche’s death in 1734 Bach did not write for this instrument anymore, and for repeat performances of any cantatas containing a corno da tirarsi part, Bach rewrote it for other instruments. Read more about this in Olivier Picon’s article on the “corno da tirarsi” from 2010.The 27 cantatas are mentioned on page 22 of the article.

I enjoy Lenosky's videos. Here is one with Brian Lopes. The skill level is unreal for both of them.

Not one of the top cantatas, but a solid B in my book and a beautiful performance from one of the best groups on the world. The text has something to do with the contest of belief and doubt in the human mind, I am told.
Whats your interest in it and what is your religious background? Being of Swiss extraction, I guess you could be Lutheran, Calvinist, Roman Catholic, or something else from the American smorgasbord. Being a Jew, I find many of Bach’s texts pretty foreign, but I am often so moved by the music that I feel almost ready to believe.

My kin from Switzerland came in 1735. That's quite far removed. Like them, I am a Protestant, though. However, I don't know German, so the lyrics are Greek to me.

Pre-1977 (1877?) non-electronic organs with pipes.
Not some of it, especially from the 1970s.
