He composed it in Mühlhausen in either 1707 or 1708, which makes it one of Bach's earliest cantatas. The text is based on Psalm 130. == History and words == A note on the score of the cantata indicates that the work was commissioned by Georg Christian Eilmar, minister of the Marienkirche (St Mary's church) in Mühlhausen. This allows the work to be dated to 1707–08, the period Bach was employed as organist at another of Mühlhausen's churches, Divi Blasii.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The Church of Blaise the Divine (Divi-Blasii-Kirche) )〕 Bach was only 22 when he arrived in the town, but his talent as a composer was recognised, and he wrote other cantatas while living there. ''Aus der Tiefen rufe ich, Herr, zu dir'' has been described as possibly Bach's first surviving cantata, on the assumption that it was composed not long after arrival. The libretto is based on Psalm 130, one of the penitential psalms. The incipit of the psalm, "Aus der Tiefen rufe ich, Herr, zu dir", gives the cantata its name.〔〔Originally a Hebrew text, the incipit "From the depths..." has variants in English translation (for example, the relevant verse from is rendered "Out of the depths..." in the King James version). A closer translation of the German text would be "deep" rather than "depths".〕 The anonymous librettist, possibly Eilmar, includes in two of the movements verses from ''Herr Jesu Christ, du höchstes Gut'', a Lutheran chorale by Bartholomäus Ringwaldt.〔The chorale is also penitential. Bach later used it as the basis for the cantata ''Herr Jesu Christ, du höchstes Gut'', BWV 113, where the words form a counterpart to the tax collector's prayer in the parable of the Pharisee and the Publican, the gospel reading for the eleventh Sunday after Trinity.〕 In his Bach Cantata Pilgrimage, Sir John Eliot Gardiner performed and recorded the work with cantatas for the Fifth Sunday after Trinity,〔This was partly for a practical reason, the paucity of surviving cantatas for that particular Sunday. See (Cantatafinder ) – search tool dedicated to the live recordings made during the Bach Cantata Pilgrimage under the SDG label〕 but is not known for sure when in the liturgical year Bach performed it, and there has been speculation that it was written for a special occasion. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aus der Tiefen rufe ich, Herr, zu dir, BWV 131」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
