Bach leads us from the valley of death and darkness to the final and light Last Supper in Paradise. Rudolf Lutz will demonstrate on the organ (Friday, April 17th, 2020, from 6.45 P.M. onwards) that the movements of BWV 4 "Christ lag in Todesbanden" could also be interpreted as chorale preludes.

There is not much else we could do (with the means still available and permitted) in order to maintain our memories of the cantata concert we had originally planned, but performing the very piece of music—just in a different way, namely with our proven one-man ensemble, Rudolf Lutz, at the keyboard and on the organ.

Programme
Friday, April 17th, 2020, from 6:45 P.M. onwards
Rudolf Lutz will demonstrate on the organ at the church of Stein that the movements of this cantata could also be interpreted as chorale preludes. While Bach certainly set out to demonstrate his striking ability to illuminate the individual paintings that the cantata movements represent, Rudolf Lutz will illuminate the complexity of chorale preluding on the basis of this cantata.
In view of the prevailing epidemic and its serious consequences, but also and especially because of the text and the music, this will not be an easy fare. Consolation is not in sight. We cannot change it, neither can we gloss over the current situation nor play down the story told at Easter. Who would have thought until very recently that a sentence by Luther such as "the strangler can no longer harm us" would suddenly become today’s thrusting prayer?
1. Sinfonia
2. Versus 1
Christ lag in Todes Banden
für unsre Sünd gegeben,
er ist wieder erstanden
und hat uns bracht das Leben.
Des wir sollen fröhlich sein,
Gott loben und ihm dankbar sein
und singen halleluja. Halleluja.
3. Versus 2
Den Tod niemand zwingen kunnt
bei allen Menschenkindern;
das macht’ alles unsre Sünd,
kein Unschuld war zu finden.
Davon kam der Tod so bald
und nahm über uns Gewalt,
hielt uns in seinem Reich gefangen.
Halleluja.
4. Versus 3
Jesus Christus, Gottes Sohn,
an unsre Statt ist kommen
und hat die Sünde weggetan,
damit dem Tod genommen
all sein Recht und sein Gewalt;
da bleibet nichts denn Tods Gestalt,
den Stachel hat er verloren.
Halleluja.
5. Versus 4
Es war ein wunderlicher Krieg,
da Tod und Leben rungen;
das Leben da behielt den Sieg,
das Leben behielt den Sieg,
es hat den Tod verschlungen.
Die Schrift hat verkündiget das,
wie ein Tod den andern fraß,
ein Spott aus dem Tod ist worden.
Halleluja.
6. Versus 5
Hie ist das rechte Osterlamm,
davon Gott hat geboten,
das ist hoch an des Kreuzes Stamm
in heißer Lieb gebraten.
Das Blut zeichnet unser Tür,
das hält der Glaub dem Tode für,
der Würger kann uns nicht mehr schaden.
Halleluja.
7. Versus 6
So feiren wir das hohe Fest
mit Herzensfreud und Wonne,
das uns der Herr erscheinen läßt.
Er ist selber die Sonne,
der durch seiner Gnaden Glanz
erleuchtet unsre Herzen ganz,
der Sünden Nacht ist verschwunden.
Halleluja.
8. Choral Versus 7
Wir essen und leben wohl
in rechten Osterfladen;
der alte Sauerteig nicht soll
sein bei dem Wort der Gnaden.
Christus will die Koste sein
und speisen die Seel allein,
der Glaub will keins andern leben.
Halleluja.
Rudolf Lutz is not only regarded in the music world as an eloquent pedagogue, able to explain complex compositional contexts in a vivid way, but he is also one of the most sought-after improvisers worldwide. He will give his presentation in English to do justice to our large Internet community.
The church of Stein AR has a very valuable instrument built by Orgelbau Kuhn AG in 1985. We love to hold organ recitals there, and many visitors of the "Appenzeller Bachtage" know the beautiful church because of "Singen in der Früh", the popular sing-along programme in our festival in August.
