: I was wondering if anyone has any background information of "Wachet Auf" by J.S. Bach?
I assume your'e talking about Cantata no.140.
There are all sorts of discussions about this in various publications in the UK. One of the most straightforward is in "Analysis of Musical Classicas" by Annie O. Warburton, pub. Longmans, London 1963.
