César Francks Klaviertriptychon Prélude, Aria et Final (FWV 23/CFF 26) aus dem Jahre 1886/1887 gilt als eine seiner bekanntesten und bedeutendsten Klavierkompositionen. Wie sein Pendant Prélude, Choral et Fugue sind auch Prélude, Aria et Final dem für Franck typischen zyklischen Prinzip verpflichtet, gemäß dem sich das eigentliche Thema erst in und durch eine Vielzahl von Umformungen einzelner seiner Motive bildet, die - in allen Sätzen präsent - allmählich zur Einheit verdichtet und zum Gesamtkunstwerk vereinheitlicht werden. Die Orgelbearbeitung dieser letzten Klavierkomposition Francks - durch einen dichten, von der Orgel beeinflußten Klaviersatz nahegelegt - lässt einerseits die charakteristische Tonsprache von Francks originalen Orgelkompositionen erkennen, erschließt seiner Orgelmusik andererseits aber auch Klangwelten und Satztechniken, die Franck selbst zu seinen Lebzeiten noch nicht glaubte beschreiten zu dürfen und die erst von Charles-Marie Widor, Marcel Dupré und anderen zu voller Entfaltung entwickelt wurden. (Otto Depenheuer).

The cantata Es ist euch gut, dass ich hingehe [It is well that I go forth] BWV 108 for Cantate Sunday is one of the cantatas composed on texts by the Leipzig poetess Christiane Mariane von Ziegler with which Bach concluded his second annual cycle of cantatas after he had abandoned the annual cycle of chorale cantatas at Easter 1725. The text contains two sayings by Jesus which are taken directly from the Sunday gospel reading (John 16:5-15). The quotation opening the cantata was set by Bach as a bass aria with solo oboe d'amore; it breathes tranquility and assurance. The second quotation, however, is set as an extended choral fugue in three sections; it forms the center of the cantata. The free text surrounding the biblical quotations is divided into two arias in which the emphasis is on melodic lines; there is only one single recitative, the original text of which was substantially abridged by Bach. A four-part chorale concludes the cantata. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3110800.
