Provenance

Where it came from

The Jagd-Kantate, or Hunt Cantata, was originally composed by Johann Sebastian Bach in 1713 for the birthday of Duke Christian of Saxe-Weissenfels. As one of Bach's earliest secular cantatas, it was intended as a festive tribute rather than a religious work, showcasing the composer's ability to integrate pastoral themes with sophisticated baroque structures.

This specific recording was released by Bärenreiter-Musicaphon in 1966, featuring Helmuth Rilling conducting the Bachcollegium Stuttgart and the Figuralchor der Gedächtniskirche Stuttgart. Rilling, a renowned Bach scholar, led this performance as part of his extensive efforts to document the composer's secular vocal works with a focus on historical clarity and precision, receiving praise for the ensemble's disciplined and spirited interpretation of the score.
