Du Hirte Israel, höre (BWV 104): opening

Don't you just "know" when someone has put good work into a product just from your first experience with it? We think this is why Bach never feels lazy. While Bach excels at portraying a shepherd's pasture with music, we hear how some contemporary examples from film and TV are so much more widely varied in quality. Bach's musical pasture is so idyllic that we can use it to de-stress from our modern lives! Cantata BWV 104: https://youtu.be/eZaL8XakQLo Freesound #183454 CC license
