The previously unknown Heilig MWV B 47, which was presumably written in 1844 at about the time of other choral works written by the composer for the Royal Cathedral Choir in Berlin. The choral piece, which is only 25 measures long, was rehearsed several times back then, but not performed in public. The autograph soon disappeared into the album of a Viennese collector. Although Mendelssohn, upon sending him the piece, insisted that it was not intended for the public, he wanted above all to block a publication that he would not have been able to control. Today, Heilig expands our knowledge of the composer's artistic personality during his last period of creativity while at the same time adding a rewarding little a cappella piece to the repertoire.

One little first edition shared the limelight with some of the more spectacular releases.

The cantata O heilges Geist- und Wasserbad (O Holy spirit's solemn rite) BWV 165 is one of Bach's earliest cantata compositions and was presumably first performed in the Weimar Schlosskirche for Trinity Sunday in 1715. With a simple instrumentation of only strings and basso continuo (including bassoon), the cantata offers an alternative to the later Leipzig cantatas for the Feast of the Holy Trinity, also with regard to the vivid interpretation of the text in the librettos by Salomon Franck. In the two expressive recitatives and the three distinctively different arias, Bach repeatedly emphasizes the central words of the text, which focuses on the meaning of the rebirth of the spirit through baptism.
