With Prof. Dr. Peter Wollny (Bach Archive Leipzig) Moderated by Dr. María del Mar Alonso Amat

At the end of the 1730s, the Leipzig Thomaskantor Johann Sebastian Bach set about revising his cantatas. In the process, he reworked some choruses and arias, which he apparently considered to be particularly musically successful, into four Kyrie Gloria masses. What sources are available and what could have been his motives?
