Johann Sebastian Bach: Johann Sebastian Bach (31 March [O.S. 21 March] 1685 28 July 1750) was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period.  He is known for instrumental compositions such as the "Brandenburg Concertos" and the "Goldberg Variations", and vocal music such as the "St Matthew Passion" and the Mass in B minor.  Since the 19th-century Bach Revival he has been generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time.

Widerstehe doch der Sünde, BWV 54: Widerstehe doch der Sünde (Just resist sin), BWV 54, is a church cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach.

It is Bach's first extant church cantata for a solo voice.

Schwingt freudig euch empor, BWV 36: Schwingt freudig euch empor (Soar joyfully upwards), BWV 36, is a church cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach.  He composed it in Leipzig in 1731 for the first Sunday in Advent, drawing on material from previous congratulatory cantatas, beginning with "Schwingt freudig euch empor", BWV 36c (1725).  The Gospel for the Sunday was the Entry into Jerusalem, thus the mood of the secular work matched "the people's jubilant shouts of Hosanna".  In a unique structure in Bach's cantatas, he interpolated four movements derived from the former works with four stanzas from two important hymns for Advent, to add liturgical focus, three from Luther's "Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland " and one from Nicolai's "Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern ".  He first performed the cantata in its final form of two parts, eight movements, on 2 December 1731.

It is an incomplete cantata, and its three extant movements present it as a chorale cantata using unmodified stanzas of Martin Rinckart's "Nun danket alle Gott" (Now Thank We All Our God), written 1636.  As its liturgical function is unknown it is however not always seen as included in Bach's chorale cantata cycle.

Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland: "Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland " (original: "Nu kom der Heyden heyland ", English: "Now come, Saviour of the heathens") is a Lutheran chorale of 1524 with words written by Martin Luther, based on "Veni redemptor gentium " by Ambrose.  It was printed in the Erfurt "Enchiridion" of 1524.  The chorale was used as the prominent hymn for the first Sunday of Advent for centuries.  It was used widely in organ settings by Protestant baroque composers, most notably Johann Sebastian Bach: he set it as the opening chorale prelude BWV 599 of Orgelbüchlein; and three times—as BWV 659 (one of his best known organ compositions), BWV 660 and BWV 661—in his Great Eighteen Chorale Preludes.  Bach used the hymn in his chorale cantata "Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland", BWV 62 (1724) and in the opening chorale fantasia of his earlier cantata "Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland", BWV 61 , BWV 61 (1714).  Max Reger composed a chorale prelude as No. 29 of his 52 Chorale Preludes, Op. 67 in 1902.
