About This Song
About ""Christ lag in Todes Banden", BWV 4 : 7. Versus VI: "So feiern wir das hohe Fest"" by Cantus Cölln
The final verse of BWV 4 bursts forth as a celebration, yet Cantus Cölln tempers jubilation with gravity. “So we keep the high feast” is sung with measured exultation, the chorale melody a sturdy spine. Trumpets and voices entwine in a dance that remembers the tomb even as it celebrates the empty grave.
