Sei Lob und Preis mit Ehren (May there be praise and glory and honour), BWV 28/2a and BWV 231, identical to the second movement of BWV Anh. 160, is a motet composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. [1] It was composed some time in 1725.[ citation needed]
BWV 28/2a is an arrangement of the second movement of Bach's cantata Gottlob! nun geht das Jahr zu Ende, BWV 28, with a different text, however taken from the same Lutheran hymn, that is Johann Gramann's " Nun lob, mein Seel, den Herren" (1530). [1]
The motet has SATB voice parts. [1] In some[ which?] printings of this motet, a basso continuo is added to support the bass part, doubling it exactly.[ citation needed]
