# Talk:Jesu, nun sei gepreiset, BWV 41

I am going through the pages currently existing on Wiki for Bach's cantatas, after editing a Bach Cantata Pilgrimage section, and thought I'd make an effort to standardize their presentation inasmuch as possible. 

Consequently, I've created a few sections: a general intro that contains the German title, alongside a literal translation to English, BWV number, and type of cantata (sacred vs. secular).
This section also contains the prescribed readings and the authorship of the texts, when known, as well as the authorship of the chorale theme.
The articles are completed with a scoring and structure section, followed by the complete German text, in three columns, and a list of complete recordings (as I can find online, obviously. I'm sure there are many more recordings).
I plan on applying this template to all articles (existing or to be created) on the cantatas. Any advice/recommendation would be greatly appreciated and surely taken into account.

Where is the aforementioned German text? Including an English translation would be nice.
Reading this while listening to an aria of the cantata in question, I was unsure how the original melody by Melchior Vulpius went. When referring to motifs or melodies, it would be nice to actually write them down in G clef (or have a button to click to hear them played). 2604:2000:F64D:FC00:88DA:F5BC:DD22:95AB (talk) 16:10, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
Well, aforementioned was more than 10 years ago. Text and a translation are in the first source, Dellal, [1]. We decided not to have the text in the articles, as too German for many readers, nor a translation, as a matter of taste. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:21, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
