At last, Koopman's re-release of the 3-Disc Set Complete Cantatas Vol. 8 is available on Amazon.com. But, where is the description of what's on it? I will provide that below.
Firstly, I must include this series of re-releases on Koopman's own label, Antoine Marchand (though more costly than when on Erato in the 90s), contains the very well interpreted music of Bach as well as valuable scholarly research of Bach's Cantatas by Professor Christoph Wolff, a leading Bach scholar. Stephen Keavy leads the trumpet section performing the tasking parts in BWV 77 and 90 on this set.
Cantatas on set:
BWV 40 Dazu ist erschienen der Sohn Gottes
BWV 46 Schauet doch und sehet, ob irgend ein Schmerz sei, wie mein Schmerz
BWV 60 O Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort
BWV 64 Sehet, welch eine Liebe
BWV 65 Sie werden aus Saba alle kommen
BWV 77 Du sollst Gott, deinen Herren Lieben
BWV 81 Jesus schläft, was soll ich hoffen?
BWV 83 Erfreute Zeit im neuen Bunde
BWV 89 Was soll ich aus dir machen, Ephraim
BWV 90 Es reisset euch ein schrecklich Ende, ihr sündlichen verächter, hin
BWV 109 Ich glaube, lieber Herr, hilf meinem Unglauben!
BWV 167 Ihr Menschen, rühmet Gottes Liebe
Enjoy the Musik!
