J.S. Bach: Gott, wie dein Name, so ist auch dein Ruhm, BWV 171 - The Church Cantatas, Vol. 182

The six-movement Cantata 171 ‘Gott, wie dein Name, so ist auch dein Ruhm’ is a New Year’s Cantata, probably composed for 1 January 1729. The strict and archaic opening chorus thanks its familiarity to the fact that Bach used it again in 1748/49 for the ‘Patrem omnipotentem’ in the Credo of the Mass in B Minor. Here the first of the three trumpets has a solo role. But the cantata is in turn borrowed: the soprano aria No.4 is an adaptation of the ninth movement of the Birthday Cantata 205, and the final chorale is the same as that of Cantata 41.
