Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Edited by Ryuichi Higuchi. Arranged by Eike Wernhard. This edition: urtext edition. Stapled. Barenreiter Urtext. Vocal Score. BWV 106. 36 pages. Baerenreiter Verlag #BA10106-90. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.BA10106-90). ISBN 9790006490875. 27 x 19 cm inches. Text Language: German, English.Since there are no original sources or documents concerning the first performance of the funeral cantata Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit BWV 106, it is impossible to establish the year of origin of this work, called Actus tragicus by Bach. The striking resemblance to the cantatas BWV 131 Aus der Tiefen rufe ich, Herr, zu Dir (presumably 1707), and BWV 71 Gott ist mein Konig (1708) - both of which were composed in Muhlhausen - suggests that the funeral cantata was also written in Muhlhausen in 1707.
