Welcome to A Moment of Bach, where we sometimes zoom in so close that our targeted moment consists of only one note!  But Bach leaves us no choice but to pick this moment from BWV 4, where the music screeches to a halt, almost cartoonishly fast.  One thing's for sure: when ever the word "nichts" comes up, Bach can't resist giving us some interesting text-painting.
