Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Praise Our God in All His Splendor: Lobet Gott in Seinen Reichen; Sacred Cantata No. 11 for Ascension Day
The construction of the aria for Soprano is somewhat unusual, in that it is designed for a quartet without a true bass, the vocal part being given added importance only by the words. C. H. H. Parry says: It carries the composer's methods of applying polyphonic counterpoint in solo movements to the very highest pitch of artistic intensity. In this edition the Cembalo part has been intentionally omitted so as to define more clearly the fore going design.
