He composed it in Leipzig for the 22nd Sunday after Trinity and first performed it on 17 November 1726. == History and words == Bach wrote the cantata, a solo cantata for a tenor, in 1726 in Leipzig for the 22nd Sunday after Trinity. It is Bach's only extant cantata for tenor. The prescribed readings for the Sunday were from the Epistle to the Philippians, thanks and prayer for the congregation in Philippi (), and from the Gospel of Matthew, the parable of the unforgiving servant (). Christoph Birkmann, the poet of the cantata text stressed the opposites of the gospel, God's justice versus unjust men, in the words of the first aria "ドイツ語:Er ist gerecht, ich ungerecht" ("He is just, unjust am I"). In the first two movements the singer reflects his sinful condition, in the following two he asks God for mercy, beginning both with ''Erbarme dich'' ("Have mercy"). The following closing chorale is verse 6 of Johann Rist "ドイツ語:Werde munter mein Gemüte" (1642). Bach used the same verse later in his ''St Matthew Passion'', again following ''Erbarme dich'', the aria of Peter, regretting his denial of Jesus.〔 Bach led the first performance on 17 November 1726.〔 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「Ich armer Mensch, ich Sündenknecht, BWV 55」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
