What would love be without music – or music without love! Many couples associate unforgettable beautiful hours, a first meeting, or first kiss with a particular song. And composers have always been inspired and stimulated by love, have celebrated romantic love and longing from afar, secret love, and jealousy. In her selection of 80 songs from seven centuries, Mirjam James evokes this tremendous feeling with the most beautiful songs ranging from medieval courtly songs, through Beethoven’s Ich liebe dich, to the Beatles song And I love her. Many of the songs come from German and English language traditions, but what would such a book be without the fire of southern Europe or a dose of French charm, without the moving melodies of cool northern climes, or the melancholy songs of the Russian soul?

This beautifully-produced song book is illustrated with the sumptuous paintings of Gustav Klimt, for whom love was one of the great themes of his life. The song book contains a CD with recordings of all the songs in instrumental versions so you can sing along with the pieces and get to know them. A piano book is published alongside the song book, containing all the songs in idiomatic, playable accompaniments.

Whether it’s for an engagement or a wedding, for Valentine’s Day or an anniversary, Liebeslieder makes an ideal present for those newly in love or still in love, and who also love music.

The Whitsuntide cantata BWV 34 is closely related to the wedding cantata BWV 34a, with which it has three movements in common. Although the history surrounding the gestation of the two works is not exactly known, it is assumed that BWV 34 is a parody of BWV 34a because of the parallel texts. First performed in 1727, the work – in the form that it has been handed down – dates from 1745. Bach probably made it available to his son, Wilhelm Friedemann, for his newly appointed office as church music director in Halle in a 1746 Whitsuntide performance. The most important part is the magnificent opening chorus, which, with three trumpets, timpani, and oboes, is juxtaposed against the contemplative alto aria in the third movement "Wohl euch" ("It is well for you"), which is contrasting also in the scoring with flutes and muted violins.
