  • Was mich auf dieser Welt betrübt, for soprano, 2 violins and continuo, BuxWV105
    Genre: Other Solo Vocal
    Pr. Instrument: Soprano

This cantata sets a text by Ahasverus Fritsch, from a collection of sacred songs published in 1679 in a collection entitled, Himmels-Lust und Welt-Unlust. Buxtehude sets the four verses of the song in a strophic manner, with a ritornello for two violins and continuo that is played between each verse. The cantata is really a sacred song, rather than a cantata in Bach's manner.
