This frequently set text by Mary Elizabeth Frye is full of hope and life. In this new setting, the violin soars as if to represent the spirit that has left the grave. The repeating text “I'm not there, I'm not gone” over an ascending 1/16th note pattern gives your singers the sense of traveling to places yet unknown.

Ich steh mit einem Fuss im Grabe (I stand with my open grave before me) BWV 156 is one of the few surviving cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach that is based on texts from the so-called Picander cycle. As in several other cantatas that use texts from this poet, Bach opens the work with a sinfonia, most likely taken from an earlier concerto that didn't survive and is later reused as the slow movement of the famous harpsichord concerto in F minor BWV 1056. In the first aria, the poet combines his text with a well-known chorale, a technique that is often found in Bach's cantatas, particularly those from the pre-Leipzig period. The cantata is comprised of six short movements; the choir is used only in the final chorale. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3115600.

Arranged for SATB choir, two keyboards, strings, and optional harp, with soprano, tenor (optional) and baritone soloists, this fresh and unorthodox interpretation reflects on the words of the Latin Mass by juxtaposing them with poems in English. A baritone solo on the English text begins the movement (Do not stand at my grave and weep…) and soon the choir enters to accompany the soloist chordally on the Lacrymosa, dies illa text. That’s the extent of the Latin used in this movement, and the baritone over choir setup continues until the end. Somber and reflective, the choir never sings above mezzo piano. Duration 3:03.
