J.S. Bach: Der Herr denket an uns, BWV 196 - The Church Cantatas, Vol. 105

This early church cantata, possibly for a wedding, is difficult to date, but is generally considered to be an early work on stylistic grounds. The text is a passage from Psalm 115, assuring of God’s blessing, especially for children. Scholars have suggested the work may have been written for the wedding of Johann Lorenz Stauber, the minister in Dornheim who had married Bach and his first wife there in 1707, and Regina Wedemann, an aunt of Bach’s wife, on 5 June 1708. Bach structured the work in five movements – an instrumental Sinfonia, a chorus, an aria, a duet and a final chorus.
