Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland BWV 62
Cantata for the First Sunday of Advent
Bach began two of his cantatas (BWV 61 and 62) - belonging to the Weimar and Leipzig periods respectively - with Martin Luther`sAdvent hymn 'Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland', a German version of the early church hymn 'Veni redemptor gentium'. The cantata can be described as a Choral Cantata, typical of Bach's late creative period, incorporating theolder technical processes of polyphonic chorale settings as well as more modern solo movements.
