Good morning anons, and happy October 11th, the 18th Sunday after Trinity. Johann Sebastian Bach, considered by many to be the greatest church musician EVER, wrote 2 cantatas for Trinity 18, and today we listen to Cantata no. 96, 'Herr Christ, der einige Gottessohn' (Lord Christ, the only Son of God), first performed on October 8, 1724 at the St. Thomas Church in Leipzig, where Bach spent the last 30 years of his career.
