Van Veldhoven and Brook on Bach Cantata BWV 104 | Netherlands Bach Society

“This cantata tells us life can be all right on earth, but then there is the moment of dying. Except that it’s not called death, but it’s seen as a sleep. It is a moment you have to get through to then wake up in the heavenly Arcadia.” Conductor Jos van Veldhoven and bass Matthew Brook talk about cantata 'Du Hirte Israël, höre!', which they performed with the Netherlands Bach Society for All of Bach.

Recorded for the project All of Bach on 10 February 2018 at Walloon Church, Amsterdam. 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.
