Infobox

pipe Schlosskirche in Weimar to Schloss Weimar.

It's intentionally to the redirect, because some day thatcould become an article.

Lead

A lot of italics. It is really necessary to italicize positions like Konzertmeister and Thomaskantor?

Copied from FA BWV 172, that's my model.

History

" The text of the opening chorus corresponds to John 16:20, the text of the first recitative is taken from Acts 14:22, "we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God". = "The text of the opening chorus corresponds to John 16:20, and the text of the first recitative, "we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God", is taken from Acts 14:22."

Music

A lot of very short paragraphs and quite a lot of short, snappy sentences. Can you merge a few?

This still reads as a bit rough around the edges in parts. Could use a copyedit for clarity and some tidying up in parts but in terms of content looks adequate for GA.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:08, 13 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Will do, but make a few days. rather busy today and tomorrow, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:57, 13 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
