I am afraid I missed proposing, I am afraid. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:31, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Suggest removing parentheses around verses, both here and in the article text. Also think omitting "instrumental" makes sense in this case given that it is unspecified, and perhaps type=Funeral motet (following the model of type=Christmas cantata).

Thank you, done, - I vote for keeping "Instrumental" because too many people think the all motets were intended not to be accompanied, while Bach specified very clearly for BWV 226, for example. See source Bach digital. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:23, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
