Liturgical Year with JS Bach

The current disc in the liturgical year series turns to feasts for the Blessed Virgin Mary. Bach's cantata Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin was composed in 1725 for the feast of Mary's Purification and Wie sch+Ýn leuchtet der Morgenstern for the feast of the Annunciation in the same year. Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben was performed on the feast of the Visitation also in 1725.
