Bach - Brunnquell aller Güter BWV 445 - Johannsen | Netherlands Bach Society

Details

Description

The Brunnquell aller Güter in the title is the Holy Spirit himself, whom the Bible is attributing the provision of several essential ‘charismata‘ (talents). The Pentecostal song – recorded here for All of Bach with tenor Daniel Johannsen and organist Leo van Doeselaar - depicts and worships all of the benefits, merits and talents literally ‘inspired‘ by God. The text gradually becomes an ardent plea for steadiness in faith, for composure in turmoil.
