Saint-Saens/Bach transcription??
on: July 02, 2007, 02:59:07 PM
Would anyone have the Sinfonia from Cantata "Wir danken dir Gott," BMV 29?  This movement originated in the "Preludio" to the E Major Partita for solo violin and later popped up in other guises.  Saint-Saens took it from a later incarnation in a wedding cantata (1729).  Thanks!
Current repertoire:  "Come to Jesus" (in whole-notes)

Bingo!  Thanks, Thal.  What a treat!

As usual, I owe you one, so if you get to NYC and have a shirt that needs ironing, you can use my sofa!

Best,

Michael
