      <image:title>Discovering Bach's Secret Tempo Code - Selected Cantatas - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first and fourth movements, chorus and chorale, have a close 4:3 beat ratio, 318:237, and a 4:3 tempo ratio, 96:72, resulting in virtually equal durations, 3:18 and 3:17 (4:3 beat ratio ÷ 4:3 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). The second and third movements, alto aria and a soprano-bass duet, have a close 4:7 beat ratio, 198:333, and 4:7 tempo ratio, 48:84, resulting in similar durations, 4:07 and 3:57. Two fewer measures for the third movement, 64, and one more measure for the third movement, 112, result in a 1:1 duration ratio, 4:00-4:00 (4:7 beat ratio ÷ 4:7 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). • Movts 1-2 — 1:2 duration ratio — 6:00-3:00 • Movts 3-5 — 1:1 duration ratio — 4:10-4:10</image:caption>

      <image:title>Discovering Bach's Secret Tempo Code - Selected Cantatas - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first and second movements, a chorus and soprano aria, have a close 4:7 beat ratio, 332:572, and 8:7 tempo ratio, 96:84, resulting in a close 1:2 duration ratio, 3:25-6:50 (4:7 beat ratio ÷ 8:7 tempo ratio = 1:2 duration ratio). In addition, the two sections of the da capo aria divide into a close 3:2 ratio. The fourth and fifth movements, a bass aria and alto-tenor duet, have a close 1:1 beat ratio, 224:210, and 1:1 tempo ratio, 48:84, resulting in similar durations, 2:40 and 2:30. A little over two measures for the fifth movement, 37.33, results in a 1:1 beat ratio, 224:224, and a 1:1 duration ratio, 2:40-2:40 (1:1 beat ratio ÷ 1:1 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). The third movement at its natural tempo of 48 bpm has a duration of 1:20, which is precisely half the duration of the fourth and fifth movements, showing a 1:2:2 duration ratio, 1:20-2:40-2:40. Finally, the sixth and seventh movements, tenor recitative and chorale, have equal measures, 222, a 2:1 beat ratio, 88:44, and a 2:3 tempo ratio, 42:63, resulting a 3:1 duration ratio, 2:05-0:41 (2:1 beat ratio ÷ 2:3 tempo ratio = 3:1 duration ratio). • Movts 1-2 — 1:1 duration ratio — 3:25-6:50 • Movts 2-3 — 1:1 duration ratio — 2:40-2:40 • Movts 3-4-5 — 1:2:2 duration ratio — 1:20-2:40-2:40 • Movts 6-7 — 3:1 duration ratio — 2:05-0:41</image:caption>

      <image:title>Discovering Bach's Secret Tempo Code - Selected Cantatas - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first and second movements, alto aria and tenor recitative, have a close 28:9 beat ratio, 330:104, and 14:9 tempo ratio, 84:54, resulting in close 2:1 duration ratio, 3:55-1:55. Two more measures for the first movement, 112, and one more measure for the second movement, 27, result in a 2:1 duration ratio, 4:00-2:00. The third movement, a chorus, consists of two sections in which the first is fast and the second is a little faster, which Bach indicated with Vivace ed allegro after measure 36. The tempos 96 and 108 contribute to a total duration of 3:01. The fourth and fifth movements have a precise 1:2 beat ratio, 96:192, and 3:4 tempo ratio, 48:63, resulting in a 2:3 duration ratio, 2:00-3:00. In addition, the second and sixth movements, a recitative and chorale, have the same meter as well as meter, tempo, and duration, 2:00 for each. Thus, the cantata consists of six movements with exclusively whole number durations: 4:00-2:00-3:00-2:00-3:00-2:00 • Movts 1-2 — 28:9 beat ratio, 14:9 tempo ratio, 2:1 duration ratio (28/9 ÷ 14/9 = 2/1) • Movt 3 — two sections (fast, faster) = 3:00 • Movts 4-5 — 1:2 beat ratio, 3:4 tempo ratio, 2:3 duration ratio (1/2 ÷ 3/4 = 2/3) • Movts 2-6 — equal measures, tempos, durations — 2:00 • All Six Movts — 4:00-2:00-3:00-2:00-3:00-2:00</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The first movement, chorus, consists of 74 measures of 4/4 at 48 bpm, resulting in a duration of 6:10. Two fewer measures, 72, results in a duration of 6:00. The third and fifth movements, bass and soprano arias, have a close 4:3 beat ratio, 192:147, and 4:3 tempo ratio, 63:48, resulting in virtually equal durations, 3:02 and 3:03. Three fewer measures for the fifth movement, 144, results in a 4:3 beat ratio, 192:144, and 1:1 duration ratio, 3:00-3:00. Thus, the three major movements, 1-3-5, have a 2:1:1 duration ratio, 6:00-3:00-3:00, or the opening chorus lasts two times longer than two arias. In addition, the second and third movements, tenor recitative and bass aria, have a 1:2 duration ratio, 1:30-3:00. • Movt 1 — 72 measures of 4/4 at 48 bpm — 6:00 • Movts 3-5 — 4:3 beat ratio, 4:3 tempo ratio, 1:1 duration ratio (4/3 ÷ 4/3 = 1:1) • Movts 1-3-5 — 2:1:1 duration ratio — 6:00-3:00-3:00 • Movts 2-3 — 1:2 duration ratio — 1:30-3:00</image:caption>

One more measure for the first movement, 66, results in a 1:3 measure ratio, 66:198. a 2:3 beat ratio, 264:396, and 1:2 duration ratio, 2:45-5:30. The second and fourth movements, a tenor and bass aria, have a close 12:7 beat ratio, 396:472, and 8:7 tempo ratio, 72:63, resulting in a close 3:2 duration ratio, 5:30-3:44. Two and a half fewer measures for the fourth movement, 115.5, results in a 3:2 duration ratio, 5:30-3:40. Thus, the three major movements share two duration ratios with the longest common value of five and a half minutes: 2:45-5:30 (2:1) and 5:30-3:40 (3:2). In addition, the fifth and sixth movements, a soprano recitative and chorale, have a close 8:9 beat ratio, 36:40, and 8:7 tempo ratio, 48:54, resulting in equal durations. In other words, the finale chorale is a little faster than the previous recitative. • Movts 1-2 — 1:3 measure ratio, 66:198 • Movts 1-2 — 2:3 beat ratio, 4:3 tempo ratio, 1:2 duration ratio (2/3 ÷ 4/3 = 1/2) • Movt 2-4 — 12:7 beat ratio, 8:7 tempo ratio, 3:2 duration ratio (12/7 ÷ 8/7 = 3/2) • Movts 5-6 — 8:9 beat ratio, 8:9 tempo ratio, 1:1 duration ratio (8/9 ÷ 8/9 = 1/1) • Movt 2 — the aria and da capo sections, 116:82, have a close 3:2 ratio</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Bach used the first and fourth movements, chorus and soprano aria, from Cantata No. 59 (composed in 1724) for the first and second movements in Cantata No. 74 (composed in 1725). These two movements are unrelated in duration, which Bach used to plan the newly composed movements, 4-5-7, for this cantata. The first movement relates to the seventh movement, while the second movement relates to the fourth and fifth movements. The first and seventh movements have the same meter, 3/8, a 1:3 beat ratio, 244:732, and 2:3 tempo ratio, 84:126, resulting in a precise 1:2 duration ratio, 2:54-5:48 (1/3 ÷ 2/3 = 1/2). Seen from another perspective, Bach gave the newly composed seventh movement 244 measures, which equals the beats in the previously composed first movement, 244. After creating the 1:2 duration ratio between the first and seventh movements, Bach did likewise for the previously composed second movement, which has a duration of 2:40, and the newly composed fourth and fifth movements. First, Bach calculated how many measures each movement should have at their chosen tempos to facilitate durations of 2:40 and 5:20, which is 75 and 112. Next, Bach composed the fourth and fifth movements achieving 77 and 110 measures. • Movts 1-7 — 1:2 duration ratio — 2:54-5:48 • Movts 2-4-5 — 1:1:2 duration ratio — 2:40-2:40-5:20</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The first and fifth movements, both bass arias, are in 3/8 with a close 8:7 measure ratio, 208:188, and 4:7 tempo ratio (tempo of one measure), 32:56, resulting in a close 2:1 duration ratio, 6:30-3:21. In other words, the measure ratio, 8:7, is two times the tempo ratio, 4:7, resulting in a 2:1 duration ratio. This indicates the ideal length of 182 measures for the fifth movement, which results in a 2:1 duration ratio, 6:30-3:15. Hence, Bach was probably aiming for 182 measures, but achieved six measures over this goal, 188. In addition, the third movement, bass aria, consists of 121 measures of 4/4 at 54 bpm, resulting in a duration of 8:57. One-half more measure, 121.5, results in a duration of precisely nine minutes, 9:00. • Movts 1-5 — 2:1 duration ratio — 6:30-3:15 • Movt 3 — duration of nine minutes, 9:00</image:caption>

Four more measures for the first movement, 162, and four fewer measures for the third movement, 252, result in a 3:2 duration ratio, 6:45-4:30. In other words, the beat ratio is 3/2 times the tempo ratio which results in a 3:2 duration ratio (27/14 beat ratio ÷ 9/7 tempo ratio = 3/2 duration ratio). The second and fourth movements, soprano recitatives, are both in 4/4 with equal tempos of 54 bpm with a close 2:1 beat ratio, 84:44, resulting in a close 2:1 duration ratio, 1:33-0:48 (2/1 beat ratio ÷ 1:1 tempo ratio = 2:1 duration ratio). At its natural tempo the fifth movement, chorale, has a duration of 0:46, showing a 2:1:1 duration ratio of 1:33-0:46-0:46 between the three minor movements. • Movts 1-3 — the two major movements have a 3:2 duration ratio — 6:45-4:30 • Movts 2-4-5 — the three minor movements have a 2:1:1 duration ratio — 1:33-0:46-0:46</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The fantasia consists of 81 measures of 4/4 at 72 bpm, resulting in a duration of 4:30. The fugue is unfinished after 27 completed measures, which allows us to speculate as to how many measures Bach planned. Zoltán Göncz (please refer to the YouTube video on his completion of the fugue) concluded that Bach planned a double fugue with one subject and four countersubjects. Göncz’s completion of the fugue with a total of 89 measures is impressive. If correct, then Bach probably intended a duration of 6:45 for the fugue to create a 2:3 duration ratio with the fantasia, 4:30-6:45. Assuming a slightly faster tempo of 84 bpm for the fugue (Bach almost never intended the same tempo for preludes and fugues, but rather, one is usually a little slower or faster than the other), this means that the fugue should have a total of 95 measures to achieve 6:45. To hear how 84 bpm sounds for the fugue, listen to Göncz’s completion and adjust the playback speed to .75.   • Fantasia in C Minor — duration of 6:00 — Bach probably planned the unfinished fugue to also have a duration of 6:00.</image:caption>

In other words, the beat ratio equals 2/3 the tempo ratio resulting in a 2:3 duration ratio (16:27 beat ratio ÷ 8:9 tempo ratio = 2:3 duration ratio). • Fantasia con Imitatione in B Minor — 2:3 duration ratio — 2:00-3:00</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The toccata and fugue have a beat ratio, 336:282, and 9:8 tempo ratio, 63:56, resulting in similar durations, 5:20 and 5:02. The Adagio section of the second movement has a duration of 2:40, which is half of the duration of the toccata, 5:20, showing a 2:1 duration ratio, 5:20-2:40. In addition, when the Grave section is added on, the second movement has a total duration of 3:24. Three fewer measures for the toccata, 81, and three more measures for the fugue, 144, result in a 9:8 beat ratio, 324:288, and a 1:1 duration ratio, 5:08-5:08, showing this three-movement work to have a symmetrical 3:2:3 duration ratio, 5:08-3:24-5:08. • Toccata, Adagio, and Fugue in C Major — 3:2:3 duration ratio — 5:08-3:24-5:08</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The toccata, consisting of two sections, has a total duration of 2:03. The recitativo has a duration of 1:02. The fugue proper consists of 97 measures of 4/4 at 96 bpm (one of if not the fastest of all Bach’s fugues), resulting in a duration just over 4:02. One less measure for the fugue, 96, results in a duration of 4:00, showing an overall plan of 2:00-4:00-1:00 which adds to seven minutes, 7:00. • Toccata and Fugue in D Minor — three sections — 2:00 + 1:00 + 4:00 = 7:00</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This four-section prelude and fugue are like two preludes and fugues combined. The first and second movements have a virtually precise 3:8 beat ratio, 132:356, and 3:4 tempo ratio, 63:84, resulting in a virtually precise 1:2 duration ratio, 2:05-4:14. Three-quarters of a measure less for the fugue, 88.25, results in a 1:2 duration ratio of 2:06-4:12.  In other words, the beat ratio equals half the tempo ratio resulting in a 1:2 duration ratio (3:8 beat ratio ÷ 3:4 tempo ratio = 1:2 duration ratio). The fourth movement, the final fugue section, consists of 96 measures of 3/4 at 96 bpm, resulting in a duration of three minutes, 3:00. Assuming 54 bpm for the remaining third movement, a brief prelude of 11 measures in 4/4, results in a duration of 0:48 which when rounded off to 0:45 is one-fourth the length of the concluding fugue section, 3:00. In sum, the four sections are divided into two duration pairs, 1:2 and 1:4. • Prelude and Fugue in E Major — 1:2 duration ratio, 2:06-4:12 — 1:4 duration ratio, 0:45-3:00.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The first and third movements, Trés vitement and Lentement, have a close 6:7 beat ratio, 112:136, and 6:7 tempo ratio, 72:84, resulting in virtually equal durations, 1:33 and 1:37. In other words, the beat ratio equals the tempo ratio resulting in a 1:2 duration ratio (6:7 beat ratio ÷ 6:7 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). The second movement, Gravement, consists of 157 measures of 2/2 at 63 bpm, resulting in a duration of 4:59. Two more measures for the first movement, 30, and half a measure more for the second and third movements, 157.5 and 17.5, result in a symmetrical 1:3:1 duration ratio, 1:40-5:00-1:40. (Compare these durations to those in BWV 536.) • Fantasia in G Major — three sections have a 1:3:1 duration ratio — 1:40-5:00-1:40</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The passacaglia and fugue have a close 21:16 ratio of beats, 504:372, and 7:8 tempo ratio, 63:72, resulting in a close 3:2 duration ratio, 8:00-5:10. Four more measures for the fugue, 128, result in a 21:16 duration ratio, 504:384, and a 3:2 duration ratio of 8:00-5:20. In other words, the beat ratio equals 3/2 the tempo ratio resulting in a 3:2 duration ratio (21:16 beat ratio ÷ 7:8 tempo ratio = 3:2 duration ratio). Having fallen four measures short of the 128-measure ideal in the fugue and needing to extend it by about ten seconds provides the best explanation for Bach's Adagio indication in the penultimate measure. • Passacaglia and Fugue in C Minor — 3:2 duration ratio — 8:00-5:20</image:caption>

One less measure for the first movement, 36, and one more measure for the fourth movement, 63, result in a 1:1 duration ratio, 2:15-2:15. In other words, the beat ratio equals the tempo ratio resulting in a 1:1 duration ratio (8:7 beat ratio ÷ 8:7 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). The second and third movements, (Andante) and (Adagio), have a close 7:16 beat ratio, 88:192, and 7:8 tempo ratio, 63:72, resulting in a close 1:2 duration ratio of 1:23-2:40. One less measure for the second movement, 21, results in a 7:16 beat ratio, 84:192, and a 1:2 duration ratio, 1:20-2:40. In other words, the beat ratio equals half the tempo ratio resulting in a 1:2 duration ratio (7:16 beat ratio ÷ 7:8 tempo ratio = 1:2 duration ratio). • Pastorale in F Major — four movements organized into two duration pairs — 1:1 duration ratio between the first and fourth movements, 2:15-2:15 — 1:2 duration ratio between the second and third movements, 1:20-2:40 (without repeats), or a 1:1 duration ratio, 2:40-2:40 (with repeats)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>To understand Bach’s thought process in assembling the six Schübler Chorales, it is first necessary to analyze the five cantatas from 1724, 1725, and 1731 – Nos. 140, 93, 10, 6, 137 – which may be studied in the “Selected Cantatas” chapter. After these five cantatas are closely studied and all the duration ratios are uncovered, understanding Bach’s intentions in the Schübler Chorales becomes straightforward and totally logical.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig is the only movement in the Great 18 other than No. 12 that does not have a duration partner. In rare cases like this, Bach’s usual procedure was to create a whole number duration. In this beautiful “Lamb of God” movement, Bach apparently chose a duration of nine minutes, 9:00, and achieved this with pinpoint accuracy. Bach’s desire for this movement to last nine minutes rather than seven or eight (like No. 12) probably reflects the three verses of the text and the theological implications of 3 + 3 + 3 = 9, not to mention the three sharps or the two forms of triple meter, simple and complex. In sum, this piece is thoroughly imbued with symbolism of threes on no fewer than six levels (Table 1):</image:caption>

Like in the inventions, this imbues the sinfonias with outer-parameter symmetry which symbolizes The Alpha &amp; The Omega. It is significant that 1:30 (rounded off from 1:34) is the most common duration and occurs a total of six times out of fifteen. This shows that Bach achieved equal durations of 1:30 as close as possible while also achieving his personal signature of 21 and 38 measures.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The prelude and fugue have a close 4:3 beat ratio, 140:108, and virtually precise 4:3 tempo ratio, 63:48, resulting in a 1:1 duration ratio. In other words, the beat ratio equals the tempo ratio resulting in a 1:1 duration ratio (4:3 beat ratio ÷ 4:3 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). • Prelude and Fugue in C Major — 1:1 duration ratio 2:15-2:15</image:caption>

      <image:caption>It is also possible that Bach planned both prelude and fugue to last two minutes, in which case both tempos speed up to the next fastest possibility in the tempo matrix. At 72 bpm, the prelude has a duration of 1:56, while at 54 bpm the fugue has a duration of 2:00. If correct, then Bach planned 36 measures for the prelude. In other words, the beat ratio equals the tempo ratio resulting in a 1:1 duration ratio (4:3 beat ratio ÷ 4:3 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). Initially, this possibility seems like the correct choice because of the presence of whole number durations; however, on repeated hearings and judging with scrutiny, the tempos seem a little too fast. • Prelude and Fugue in C Major — 1:1 duration ratio — 2:00-2:00</image:caption>

In this pair, Bach apparently originally planned 24 and 42 measures to achieve 2:00 for both prelude and fugue, but after overshooting the measures in the prelude by two, 26, which amounts to ten seconds, Bach then intentionally overshot the measures in the fugue by two, 44, to retain the planned 1:1 duration ratio accurately. • Prelude and Fugue in D Minor — 1:1 duration ratio — 2:10-2:10</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The prelude consists of two sections in which the natural tempos result in a close 2:1 ratio between the sections that add to precisely 3:00. At its natural tempo, the fugue has a duration of 1:30, showing a 2:1 duration ratio between prelude and fugue, 3:00-1:30. Bach achieved this relationship with no margin of error, which indicates that he probably planned both sections of the prelude to have 21 measures to facilitate the 2:1 division with a total duration of three minutes: 2:00 + 1:00 = 3:00. In actual practice, Bach achieved one measure over in the first section, 22, and two measures under in the second section, 21, which average out and do not affect the planned duration of 3:00. We may learn from this that Bach’s use of Presto in the second section of the prelude does not mean “as fast as possible” (as the word is often interpreted today), but rather, “twice the speed” of the first section. • Prelude and Fugue in E Minor — 2:1 duration ratio — 3:00-1:30</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The prelude and fugue have a virtually precise 4:3 beat ratio, 132:100, and 4:3 tempo ratio, 63:48, resulting in equal durations of 2:05. In other words, the beat ratio equals the tempo ratio resulting in a 1:1 duration ratio (4:3 beat ratio ÷ 4:3 tempo ratio = 1:1 duration ratio). Bach apparently planned three fewer measures for the prelude, 63, and four fewer measures for the fugue, 96, to achieve a 1:1 duration ratio of 2:00-2:00. • Prelude and Fugue in B Minor — 1:1 duration ratio — 2:05-2:05</image:caption>
