Original music was lost, but since this cantata was actually the original version of BWV 249 (Easter Oratorio), the music can be reconstructed:
Mvts. 1 & 2 Sinfonia = BWV 249/1,2
Mvt. 3 Aria (Duetto) = BWV 249/3 (Chorus)
Mvt. 4 Recitative = music lost
Mvt. 5 Aria = BWV 249/5
Mvt. 6 Recitative = music lost
Mvt. 7 Aria = BWV 249/7
Mvt. 8 Recitative = music lost
Mvt. 9 Aria = BWV 249/9
Mvt. 10 Recitative = music lost
Mvt. 11 Aria (Quartet) = BWV 249/11 (Chorus) |
