BCW: Cantata BWV 16 - Revised & updated Discography

January 9, 2017:

The Chorale Cantata BWV 16 "Herr Gott, dich loben wir" (Lord God, we praise you) was composed by J.S. Bach in Leipzig for the New Year's Day [Circumcision of Christ, Holy Name] of 1726. It was performed again in Leipzig in 1749 on the same event. The cantata is scored for alto, tenor & bass soloists; 4-part Chorus; and orchestra of corno da caccia, 2 oboes, oboe da caccia, 2 violins, viola, violetta & continuo.

The discography pages of BWV 16 on the BCW have been revised and updated. See:
Complete Recordings (11): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV16.htm
Recordings of Individual Movements (5): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV16-2.htm
The revised discography includes many listening/watching options to recordings directly from the discography pages, just below the recording details.

I also put at the BCW Home Page: http://www.bach-cantatas.com/
2 audios of the cantata. A short description below the audio/video image is linked to the full details at the discography pages.

I believe this are the most comprehensive discography of this chorale cantata. If you are aware of a recording of BWV 16 missing from these pages, or want to correct/add details of a recording already presented on the BCW, please do not hesitate to inform me.

You can also read on the BCW the recent discussion of the cantata in the BCML (4th round): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV16-D4.htm

Happy New Year!
