La cantate de la chasse (no 208) est une des vingt cantates profanes de Bach. Orchestree pour quatre voix solistes incarnant des figures mythologiques (Diane, Pales, Endymion et Pan), un ensemble orchestral assez large (incluant des flutes/flutes a bec, des hautbois et des cors) et un Choeur mixte, elle contient l'aria connue Sheep May Safely Graze. Ajoutez une touche baroque a votre concert avec cet excellent arrangement de Philip Sparke.

There are just over twenty secular cantatas in Bach's prolific output, which include The Coffee Cantata (No 211), The Wedding Cantata (No 202), Phoebus and Pan (No 201) and the Hunt Cantata (No 208) which contains the famous aria Sheep May Safely Graze. Written for four vocal soloists it was originally scored for a relatively large orchestra (including flutes (recorders), oboes and horns) and mixed choir. Although secular in character, the words describe how well a faithful shepherd keeps watch over his flock and hence has obvious allusions to the teachings of the Christian church. Bring a bit of the Baroque era to your concert with thisfirst class arrangement by Philip Sparke.
