He composed the solo cantata for alto in Weimar between 1711 and 1714, and probably performed it on the seventh Sunday after Trinity, 15 July 1714. It is Bach's first extant church cantata for a solo voice. The text of the short work was written by Georg Christian Lehms, for two arias and a connecting recitative. The topic is to resist sin, based on the Epistle of James. The text was published in a 1711 collection, dedicated to the Sunday Oculi. It is not known when Bach composed the work but is assumed that he performed it as part of his monthly cantata productions in 1714 on the seventh Sunday after Trinity, 15 July. The solo voice is accompanied by strings: two violin parts, two viola parts and continuo. The composition begins with a striking dissonant chord. == History and words == The history of the composition is not clear. The text was written by Georg Christian Lehms for Oculi, the third Sunday in Lent, and published in 1711 in ''ドイツ語:Gottgefälliges Kirchen-Opffer''.〔 It concentrates on avoiding sin, based on the Epistle of James.〔 The first line of movement 3 quotes .〔 Bach may have composed the cantata already before taking up regular cantata compositions in Weimar.〔 He was appointed concertmaster of the Weimar court capelle of the co-reigning dukes Wilhelm Ernst and Ernst August of Saxe-Weimar, on 2 March 1714. As concertmaster, he assumed the principal responsibility for composing new works, specifically cantatas for the ''ドイツ語:Schlosskirche'' (palace church), on a monthly schedule.〔 The Bach scholar Alfred Dürr suggested that Bach performed the cantata for the Seventh Sunday after Trinity of 1714. The prescribed readings for the Sunday are from the Epistle to the Romans, "the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life" (), and from the Gospel of Mark, the feeding of the 4000 (). The cantata text relates to the epistle of both Sundays, but shows no connection to either Gospel.〔 While Dürr assumes that Bach first performed the cantata on 15 July 1714,〔 other scholars arrive at different dates. John Eliot Gardiner and others assume Oculi that year which would make it the earliest cantata performed after the promotion.〔〔 It is his first extant church cantata for a solo voice, followed by ドイツ語:''Mein Herze schwimmt im Blut'', BWV 199, for soprano.〔 The cantata is the first of four written for a single alto soloist, the others, all composed in 1726, being ドイツ語:''Geist und Seele wird verwirret'', BWV 35, ''Vergnügte Ruh, beliebte Seelenlust'', BWV 170, and ドイツ語:''Gott soll allein mein Herze haben'', BWV 169, two of which also have texts by Lehms.〔 In Leipzig at Bach's time, a boy soloist performed the difficult part which is now sung by contraltos and countertenors.〔 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「Widerstehe doch der Sünde, BWV 54」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
