Motet No.6 Lobet Den Herrn, Alle Heiden BWV 230

Lobet den Herrn, alle Heiden BWV 230 - Motet for four-part mixed choir.

In Bach’s voluminous output of music the motets form a small group of modest proportions, particularly as compared to the200 or so surviving cantatas. In historical perspective, however, the corpus of motets is especially distinguished, being the only part of Bach’s vocal œuvre whose post-1750 tradition has remained unbroken to the presentday.
