For this beloved Cantata, the Novello vocal score prepared by the eminent English organist John Ebenezer West was re-engraved by G. Schirmer in the early part of the 20th century with Henry Drinker's English translation added beneath the original German text. The West vocal score was itself based upon the renowned Bach Gesellschaft full score of 1850. Now available in an easy-to-use, convenient size designed to fit comfortably in choral folders. Matches the widely available reprint orchestral parts offered by E. F. Kalmus (A2493) and Luck's Music Library (08669).
