Commentary on the movements

Parte Prima:

1. Chorus: Herr, deine Augen sehen nach dem Glauben. "One of the great achievements of the mature Bach."¹. The complex form of this movement is beyond the scope of this analysis, however its larger outline is a simple rondo shape in a larger ABA structure. The fugal structure is equally brilliant and complex.
2. Recitativo (Bass): Wo ist das Ebenbild, das Gott. Secco recitative.
3. Aria (Alto): Weh der Seele, die den Schaden."An aria whose gestures could hardly be surpassed for compelling effect."¹ The intense dissonances of this movement, combined with the oft-used pathetic character of the baroque oboe give this movement an incredible illustration of the text.
4. Arioso (Bass): Verachtest du den Reichtum seiner. Practically speaking a da capo aria with strings, the music here takes precedence over the text; perhaps it is a parody movement.

Parte Seconda:

1. (No. 5) Aria (Tenor): Erschrecke doch. Obbligato flute (or violino piccolo) accompanies a lively aria with many fast passages with wide ranges.
2. (No. 6) Recitativo (Alto): Bei Warten ist Gefahr. Recitative with two oboes.
3. (No. 7) Choral: Heut lebst du, heut bekehre dich. A plain chorale setting.
