J.S. Bach - Coffee Cantata BWV 211. Aria “Heute Noch“. Emma Kirkby, Soprano

Emma Kirkby - Soprano Cristopher Hogwood The Academny of Ancient Music Rose-cheek’d Laura, come, Sing thou smoothly with thy beauty’s Silent music, either other Sweetly gracing. Lovely forms do flow From concent divinely framed; Heav’n is music, and thy beauty’s Birth is heavenly. These dull notes we sing Discords need for helps to grace them; Only beauty purely loving Knows no discord, But still moves delight, Like clear springs renew’d by flowing, Ever perfect, ever in them- Selves eternal.
