The work was first published in the 1950s, and it was recorded by Magda László, by Joshua Rifkin, by Wolfgang Helbich, and by Deborah York, among others.Īccording to the editors of the Bach-Gesellschaft-Ausgabe (BGA), the work, considered lost since the late 1850s, was composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Composed in A minor, the Magnificat is scored for soprano and small orchestra. The composition originated around 1707, when the composer was director musices and organist of the Neue Kirche in Leipzig.
The Magnificat in A minor, BWV Anh. 21, TWV 1:1748, is Melchior Hoffmann's musical setting of a German version ( Meine Seele erhebt den Herren) of the Song of Mary (Magnificat, "My soul magnifies the Lord") from the Gospel of Luke.
Early 18th-century manuscript copy, likely written by Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel, of the "Traversa" part of Hoffmann's Magnificat
