Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin, BWV 125

 * ... that motifs of joy in the strings connect recitative and chorale in a movement of the Bach cantata for Purification, Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin, BWV 125, on the Nunc dimittis canticle of Simeon (pictured)?
 * Reviewed: UAE Five
 * Comment: Purification 2 February, the very date if possible. Picture should probably be cropped to just Simeon's face.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Long enough, new enough, well cited, hook is interesting and has online citation, and picture is public domain. Ready to go. Moonraker (talk) 00:56, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
 * NB - I took the liberty of linking Simeon, changing the word order to bring him alongside "(pictured)", and cropping the image to focus on Simeon. Moonraker (talk) 04:37, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
