  1. Cantata No 155, 'Mein Gott, wie lang, ach lange?' BWV155 - Johann Sebastian Bach
  2. Cantata No 73, 'Herr, wie du willt' BWV 73 - Johann Sebastian Bach
  3. Cantata No 81, 'Jesus schläft, was soll ich hoffen' BWV 81 - Johann Sebastian Bach
  4. Cantata No 83, 'Erfreute Zeit im neuen Bunde' BWV 83 - Johann Sebastian Bach

Cantata 155 displays the 31-year-old Bach’s enchanting innovation in his younger days with one of the finest bassoon obbligati ever written. Cantatas 73 and 81 take as their starting point two of Christ’s miracles: the healing of the leper, and the calming of the storm. The joyful Cantata 83 is possibly Bach’s first cantata for the feast of the Purification of Mary and the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple (Candlemas) in which Simeon sings his famous Nunc dimittis.
