Avoid the repetition of "again" in the last sentence.
Use '(1647)' and '(1630)' here as well.
History
Mention Bach's full name the first time he is mentioned in the prose.
Perhaps mention that he composed the cantata in Leipzig.
Link Köthen.
Remove "certainly" and if you'd like, use something such as "according to.." or perhaps simply remove "certainly".
Rather than "for the 1723 occasion", use the "for the event" or something.
"John Eliot Gardiner and other scholars" - may I suggest an alternative? "Scholars such as John Eliot Gardiner".
"in the dedication service" -> "at the dedication service".
Music
"often dance-like" - could there be a more formal explanation or maybe use something from the source in "quotation".
A short and nice article. This should do it. Cheers, Yash! 13:02, 19 May 2016 (UTC)reply
All addressed except the last point - the character of the music is dance-like, not sure what else you would say there.
