They Sing With the Joy of Victory- A Cantata prepared for The Feast of St. Michael and All Angels (Michaelmas). A production of KNNA the Cross Radio.

Bringing Bach Back examines the theology and music of Bach Cantatas.

This Cantata is written to examine the theology of angels but begins with the atonement by Jesus Christ, who dies and sheds his blood to forgive all sinners. Only after understanding that, can we see that God uses angels to care and provide for us here in this world. This cantata ends with the promise that God will, at last, let his angels come and bear us to Abram's bosom.

We also listen to the sole remaining movement of BWV 50 - Now is Come Salvation and Strength - a probable Bach composition Michaelmas.
