Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin, BWV 125[edit]

(

)

... that motifs of joy in the strings connect recitative and chorale in a movement of the Bach cantata for Purification, Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin, BWV 125, on the Nunc dimittis canticle of Simeon (pictured)?

Reviewed: UAE Five
Comment: Purification 2 February, the very date if possible. Picture should probably be cropped to just Simeon's face.

Long enough, new enough, well cited, hook is interesting and has online citation, and picture is public domain. Ready to go. Moonraker (talk) 00:56, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

NB - I took the liberty of linking Simeon, changing the word order to bring him alongside "(pictured)", and cropping the image to focus on Simeon. Moonraker (talk) 04:37, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
