Re: Ecclesiastical year & readings

Dear Aryeh,
?
Thanks for the link. These data are useful, but they don't offer what I am looking for. For instance, Sunday Judica: Bach did not write any cantata for it, and that means that there is no information about the readings at that Sunday. And exactly that is what I would like to know about.

Regards,

Dear Johan van Veen,
You can find all the Events and Holidays in the LCY during Bach's lifetime on the BCW in the page:
listed by year and by event.
Each Event page includes links to the Readings in German with English translation.
Sincerely,
Aryeh Oron

I would like to know if there is a list of the Sun- and feastdays of the ecclesiastical year in Lutheran Germany in the time of Bach and Telemann, with an indication of the readings of that particular day. Many can be found in Alfred D¨¹rr's book on Bach's cantatas, but Bach did not compose a cantata for each Sunday, especially during Lent, as on some Sundays there was no figural music. I am preparing a review of a recording of cantatas by Telemann, who did compose a cantata for each Sunday and feastday. I am interested in the readings on those days in order to see what the connection between them and the respective librettos is.
