We do not know when and for which Sunday Cantata 117 ‘Sei Lob und Ehr dem höchsten Gut’ was composed. The structure of the nine-movement cantata runs entirely parallel to the chorale text by Johann Jacob Schütz, also consisting of nine verses all ending with the words ‘Gebt unserm Gott die Ehre’. The work commences with a chorus (the choir and orchestra alternating in blocks) based on the text and melody of the chorale. After a bass recitative and tenor aria accompanied by two oboes d’amore another chorale-like chorus follows, possibly forming the conclusion to the first part before the sermon. The sixth movement suggests a rather darkly coloured trio sonata in which the bass voice and solo violin perform a dialogue.

Composer: Johann Sebastian Bach
Artists: Netherlands Bach Collegium, Pieter Jan Leusink (conductor), Holland Boys Choir, Bas Ramselaar (Basso), Knut Schoch (Tenore), Sytse Buwalda (Alto) & Knut Schoch (Tenore)
