The arioso ‘Ach, Herr, lehre uns bedenken’ - recorded here for All of Bach with Jos van Veldhoven - is from the famous cantata 'Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit' (Actus Tragicus). This is one of Bach’s oldest cantatas and the music was undoubtedly intended for a funeral. The arioso echoes the inescapability of the 'sterben müssen' in the accompaniment of the two recorders - pleadingly complemented by the tenor’s 'lehre uns bedenken'. The key remains minor (C minor), until briefly the sun breaks through (E-flat major) at the 'auf daß wir klug werden'.
