In the opening chorus of Bach’s cantata Es erhub sich ein Streit – recorded here for All of Bach with Shunske Sato – Bach gets straight to the point. It’s clear – this is war. And not any old war, but a heavenly attack on Satan. Led by Archangel Michael, the serpent that once tempted Eve is wrestled to the ground by swarming armies of angels.

just wondering. why are the men here dressed as women and women here dressed as men?
Mockery of Bach and his high plan. All transvestites and perversion 😢
For my friends who are protesting the costumes, don't be alarmed, the lyrics have not been changed and the message is clear: in the fight between good and evil, Christianity is victorious through faith and divine protection.
Surprise surprise. Europe embracing sexual revolution and attempting to modernize Bach. Upside down world indeed. And it’s all going splendidly! And how is that awesome birth rate? This is a shame. Embarrassing. Shall we begin to wonder whether Bach really was gay or a woman? I mean, liberate him from the patriarchal past! They got one thing right: men certainly are women today and women are men. And the experiment is going swimmingly.
I was a big supporter of your videos. It's over, farewell.
Музика та спів дуже гарні ! Але Бах писав цю музику для Всевишнього , та хочаб із поваги до Баха варто виконувати його твори у пристойному зовнішньому вигляді . Божих вам благословінь.
I can imagine Bach writhing in his grave
I presume that watching the entire video would make clear why Shunske Sato is conducting in a gown for a widow at a formal funeral?
Bach is not and will never be "woke". I love NBS for the beautiful and refreshing interpretations of Bach's work. You don't need to pull stunts like this to try to be "relevant'.
Please y'all, sound edit this. I know Imma dumb American but this must be fixed or take it down.
Mr johannsen you are absolutly amazing! I will listen to you my entire live!!!!
Did Sato turn trans?
Prefer NBS in formal, dark grey attire.
No, no, no!
Much too affectatious to be pleasing.
NBS, you’ve taken a giant leap from your good senses, and it’s a real shame.
I suspect there was some kind of prank email
're: Dress Code' that only half the performers received.
I was a huge fan for the longest time. I am unsubscribing now. What nonsense!
Bellissimo, bravi! Molto belli i costumi: una gioia per le orecchie e gli occhi.
Mirabile auditu, iucundum visu
You're all a bunch of babies
Wow!
Musikalisch genial, mit der skurrilen Darbietungsform kann ich allerdings nichts anfangen. Das hat die Musik nicht nötig und passt m.E. nach nicht.
Donald Trump brought me here. He posted a Saint Michael prayer on X(twitter)
But I strongly doubt that he even knows this cantata or JSB`music in general
