Zerreißet, zersprenget, zertrümmert die Gruft (Destroy, burst, shatter the tomb) or Der zufriedengestellte Aeolus (The contented Aeolus), BWV 205.1, BWV 205, is a secular cantata or dramma per musica by Johann Sebastian Bach.
The cantata was commissioned by the students of Leipzig University for the popular professor August Friedrich Müller and premiered on his name day on 3 August 1725 as a dramma per musica under the title Der zufriedengestellte Aeolus (The contented Aeolus).
Its libretto was written by Christian Friedrich Henrici and begins with Pallas Athene (sung by a soprano) setting up a celebration in honour of Müller.
However, she fears that Aeolus (bass) could ruin the celebrations with heavy storms in August.
With the help of Zephyrus (tenor), the god of mild winds, and Pomona, the goddess of fruitfulness (alto), Pallas manages to appease Aeolus, and those present grant a vivat in unison for the professor.
