Music of last movement

[edit]

Unfortunately, the closing statement "Unusual for Bach who often closes cantatas with a simple four-part setting of a chorale, the closing chorus reprises the music of the first movement ..." simply is not correct. The score clearly states that the fourth movement - the chorale that apparently closes a first part of this cantata - is to be repeated, and this movement even has the text for verse 9 set (alongside verse 4). 85.176.208.133 (talk) 06:40, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dürr says so #1 is repeated, but may be wrong. Which edition of the score? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:42, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
