In Bach’s voluminous output of music the motets form a small group of modest proportions, particularly as compared to the 200 or so surviving cantatas. In historical perspective, however, the corpus of motets is especially distinguished, being the only part of Bach’s vocal uvre whose post-1750 tradition has remained unbroken to the present day.
