Tears into Wine : J. S. Bach's Cantata 21 in its musical & theological contexts

---

Outline: In this book, renowned Bach scholar Eric Chafe challenges the scholarly consensus, arguing that Cantata 21 is a carefully designed work, and that it displays a convergence of musical structure and theological purpose that is paradigmatic of Bach's sacred work as a whole. Drawing on a wide range of Lutheran theological writing, the author shows that Cantata 21 reaches beyond the scope of the individual liturgical occasion to voice a breadth meaning that encompasses much of the core of Lutheran thought. The author artfully demonstrates that instead of simply presenting a musical depiction of the soul's journey from sorrow to bliss, Cantata 21 expresses tha various stages of God's revelation and their impact on the believing soul. As a result, the author reveals that Cantata 21 has a formal design that mirrors Lutheran belief in unfolding revelation, with the final movement representing the work's "crown" - the goal toward which all of the earlier movements are directed. Complete with full text translations of the cantata and the liturgical readings that would have accompanied it at the first performance, this book is a monumental book that is ideally suited for Bach scholars and students, as well as those generally interested in the relationship between theology and music.
