Liverpool Bach Collective: Sunday 14 December

J. S. Bach -  Cantata 147 'Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben' (Heart and mouth and deed and life)

Choral Evensong and Cantata: The cantata is inspired by Mary's visit to her cousin Elizabeth, when Mary pronounces the words we know today as the Magnificat: My soul magnifies the Lord. The chorale of this cantata is well-known under the title Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.
