Netherlands Bach Society | Harvey on Bach Cantata BWV 62 | Netherlands Bach Society @bach | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 6 hours ago
"It almost becomes a 'Streit', a battle for dominance between the strings and the bass voice." Bass Peter Harvey talks about 'Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland', which he performed with the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach. Specifically, he feels that the aria 'Streite, siege, starker Held!' and many bass arias in general are often tied to battles between faith and sin.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on November 30th 2013 at the Walloon Church, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/3J5uprM.
