CANTATA: ICH HABE GENUG Maike

Hans-Jurgen Schnoor~ harpsichord
Jeffrey Cohan ~ baroque flute
Soprano
Maike Albrecht and harpsichordist Hans-Jürgen
Schnoor from Lubeck, Germany join baroque
flutist Jeffrey Cohan in Johann Sebastian Bach’s
cantata Ich habe genug and other works
The church cantata Ich habe genug ("I am
content"), BWV 82 was composed in Leipzig in
1727 for the feast Purification of Mary and is
one of the most often performed and recorded of
Bach's sacred cantatas. In this cantata, based
on the Song of Simeon, Bach projects a feeling
of serene contentedness with life and an
expression of the experience of body and soul
coming to rest and in complete harmony beyond
anything that words alone can convey.
