Those who wonder at the authorship of the delightful "Serenade" for string
quartet which some of us for the longest time thought had been written by
Haydn, need wonder no longer.

Taking advantage of BMG's latest sale, I obtained, among other things,
Volume 6 of Ton Koopman's recordings of Bach cantatas.  It's now clear
to me that the Serenade comes from the first soprano aria ("Hoert, ihr
Voelker, Gottes Stimme") in "Die Himmel erzaehlen die Ehre Gottes", BWV 76.
