Soli STB, Fl, 2 Vl, Va, Bc SKU: CA.3121114 Coffee cantata. Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Edited by Uwe Wolf. Stuttgart Urtext Edition: Bach vocal. Violoncello. Cantatas, Secular choral music. Single Part, Cello. Composed 1734. BWV 211. Duration 27 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 31.211/14. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.3121114). ISBN M-007-25177-2. German/English.In 1729 Bach took over the running of the "Collegium musicum" in Leipzig, founded by Telemann, and continued the tradition of giving concerts at least once a week with this ensemble in Zimmermann's coffee house or, in the summer, in the coffee garden there. The compositions which were probably composed for performance there include Bach's famous Coffee Cantata. The cantata is only superficially about daughter Liesgen's addiction to coffee, in fact it is really about her strict father Schlend rian's educational efforts, which ultimately remain ineffective - but only in Bach's cantata. In Picander's printed libretto it seems as if Schlendrian might prevail, and only in Bach's cantata, which includes two movements setting additional text, is there a twist to the contrary. Might Bach's experiences as a father have come into play here?
