THE MUSIC
BWV 144 Nimm, was dein ist, und gehe hin (Take what is yours and go away.)
Cantata BWV 144 tells of the labourers from St Matthew's Gospel who feel that they have been underpaid. It begins with a merciless fugue: don’t complain and go away. Lest there was any confusion, Bach goes on to features the figure 'gehe hin' (go away) a whopping sixty times in this piece. Hint taken.
