Bach - Motet Lobet den Herrn BWV 230 - Prégardien | Netherlands Bach Society

The motet 'Lobet den Herrn', performed by the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach, was long regarded as one of the six canonic motets by Bach, but nowadays most specialists agree that it is not a work by Bach. The most serious charge brought against 'Lobet' is a technical one. The two themes at the beginning do not fit comfortably together in accordance with the rules of counterpoint – and if there was anyone who knew how to follow those rules from an early age… it was Johann Sebastian Bach!

Recorded for the project All of Bach on 28th February 2019 at Grote Kerk, Alkmaar. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel http://bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating http://bit.ly/2uZuMj5.
