About This Song
About "Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben, Cantata BWV 147 : J.S. Bach: Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben, Cantata BWV 147: Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by The Choir Of St John’s Cambridge
Bach's 'Jesu, Joy' is a baroque engine of ecstasy, its triplet figures spinning like prayer wheels. The Choir of St John's Cambridge delivers radiant unanimity, each 'desiring' a step toward light. Under the joy, a disciplined ardor—faith as architecture, every note a stone in a cathedral of sound.
