Cantata BWV 114 - Aria 'Du machst, o Tod, mir nun nicht ferner bange' was written by Johann Sebastian Bach, for his chorale cantata BWV 114 "Ach, lieben Christen, seid getrost", first performed on October 1, 1724 in Leipzig. The aria "Du machst, o Tod, mir nun nicht ferner bange" is the fifth movement of this church cantata for the 16th Sunday after Trinity, scored for alto voice with obbligato instruments and continuo. Today it is frequently performed and recorded as a standalone example of Bach’s consoling, death‑themed arias within his sacred vocal music.
