Bach’s Cantata No. 140 is titled “Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme” (Awake, the voice is calling us). It is one of Bach’s most famous cantatas and was composed in 1731. This cantata is particularly well-known for its beautiful chorale movement, which is based on the hymn “Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme” by Philipp Nicolai. It is often performed in the context of Advent and is highly regarded for its musical and spiritual significance.
