Description
"Mit Fried and Freud ich fahr dahin" is one of the incostable summits of Johann Sebastian Bach's cantata production. This completely new edition - with organ part, note well - has just about nothing in common with our previous rental material except for the name of the publisher! Eva-Maria Hodel, the editor of this first modern-day critical edition, has gone back to the original sources - which was no small feat, considering that Bach's score is apparently lost. Fortunately, a set of parts corrected by Bach himself is still extant.
