Date of origin, Work history: zwischen April 1738 und August 1740
Date of composition around 1737-1738 (due to the involvement of scribe Johann Wilhelm Machts, see Wollny BJ 2016) for a member of the Leipzig scholarly family Rivinus; probably Professor Johann Florens Rivinus (godfather of J. Christian Bach), probably not (as initially assumed) for his birthday (July 27), but for his ceremonial appointment as the highest-ranking professor of the Faculty of Law at the University of Leipzig (between May 7 and 12, 1739, Wollny BJ 2023). Without the Oboe d’amore/Violin I preserved, but reconstructable based on the template, see BWV 36.1 (which was composed in April/May 1725 for the birthday of an academic teacher and possibly performed again on April 9, 1731, for the birthday celebration of the Thomasschulrector Johann Matthias Gesner on the occasion of his 40th birthday)
