Bach’s Cantata 17, Wer Dank opfert, der preiset mich (He who offers thanks praises Me) was composed in Leipzig and first performed there on September 22, 1726. With its joyous instrumental opening and two jubilant choral sections, it feels just right for Thanksgiving Day!

Enjoy this recording featuring the Holland Boys Choir and the Netherlands Bach Collegium conducted by Pieter Jan Leusink.

My Year of Bach.

This is an experiment.
I love Bach: listening to Bach; playing Bach (alone or with others); discovering Bach; learning from Bach; sharing Bach.

I need Bach in my daily life.

So, for 2016, I'm challenging myself to write a short daily post about Bach. Come along for the ride, if you're so inclined. Let's listen, share and learn together!

Thanks

My Year of Bach.
