Traducción

A morte foi tragada na vitória. Matthias Weckmann. Cordas Ensemble. Sagrado, Cantata. Língua. Alemão. STB.

Original

Written for soprano, tenor, bass, two violins, viola da gamba and continuo. The bass part has a very wide range, evidently the bass singer at court was quite flexible, or Weckmann simply wrote a complicated part. The gamba part could be carried by a viola if necessary. The contiuno should be performed on the organ, as Weckmann wrote his pieces for church performance. I have included a very simple realisation of the bass line, and added missing figures from the continuo. The text is from Corinthians 15, 54-55 and 57.
