Bach's cantata Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir of 1731, composed for the inauguration of the Leipzig town council, is one of the cantatas which has an obbligato organ part. In the introductory Sinfonia (an arrangement of the opening movement of the Partita in E for solo violin) and the final aria, the organ has a prominent solo part. The final aria is a transposed repetition of the first aria in the cantata, which frames its central section as a motto Halleluja, Stark und Macht sei dem allerhochsten Namen. However, the high point of the cantata is the magnificent choral movement which precedes the first Halleluja. Bach also re-used this music later in the Gratias and Dona nobis pacem sections of the Mass in B minor. New revised edition. Score available separately - see item CA.3102900.

Her octavos have been featured in our Choral Subscription Series and in numerous reading sessions. Now, Carol Browning's original compositions are available on CD and cassette! Great for contemporary ensemble, Carol's catchy refrains spark natural assembly participation. The spirited Give Thanks to the Lord, based on Psalm107, is energetic and fun, while O Lord, the Guardian of My Heart offers a prayer of quiet strength. With Grateful Hearts is ideal for Thanksgiving celebrations. But perhaps the best and brightest of this great collection is Ubi Caritas, a stunningly beautiful version of the classic chant text with music and verse texts by Browning. This recording is simply a great new way to become familiar with the works of this rising new composer.
