Ich Bin Vergnugt

Ich bin vergnügt... (I am content...) is the title of the new album by soprano Miriam Feuersinger. It refers to Johann Sebastian Bach's cantata "Ich bin vergnügt mit meinem Glücke" BWV 84, but it also corresponds entirely to the feelings of the singer, who is fulfilling a long-cherished wish of her heart with this programme: On this release, the proven Bach specialist presents the three most beautiful cantatas written by Johann Sebastian Bach for solo soprano. While the cantata "Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen" BWV 52 is an operatic, virtuosic hymn of praise that places high technical demands on the performer, in the cantata "Ich habe genug" BWV 82 Bach sets the yearning of St. Simeon for salvation in wonderful melodies in the most intimate way. Miriam Feuersinger, sensitively and delicately accompanied by the Capricornus Consort Basel, wonderfully performs Bach's cantatas with her slender, clear voice and let's us feel her "Vergnügen" in every single note.
