Where it came from
Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach in 1713, the 'Jagdkantate' (Hunting Cantata) was written to celebrate the birthday of Duke Christian of Saxe-Weissenfels. As one of Bach's earliest secular cantatas, it was intended for outdoor courtly entertainment, reflecting the refined, lighthearted tastes of the era. The work is famous for containing the aria 'Schafe können sicher weiden', known in English as 'Sheep May Safely Graze'.
This specific recording was released on the Telefunken label as part of their highly regarded Bach Cantata series, a pioneering endeavor in the historically informed performance movement. Produced in the mid-1960s, the recording features Gustav Leonhardt directing the Amsterdams Kamerorkest and the Monteverdi-Chor Hamburg. The production sought to strip away the heavy, romanticized arrangements of the past in favor of period-appropriate instruments and techniques, a choice that significantly influenced how audiences experienced Baroque music in the twentieth century.
