Product Description

Here is my transcription of Bach's Chorale Prelude BWV 639. The title "Ich ruf zu Dir, Herr Jesu Christ" means:
"I call to You, Lord Jesus Christ" and is famous for it's simplicity and profoundness. Prelude is composed for organ and it's original tonality in F minor. I transposed it to more "guitar friendly" tonality D minor.
I loved the way Paweł Pawlikowski used the piece in the last scene of his Oscar winning movie "Ida", so I took the liberty to transcribe it. It is quite demanding but totally worth an effort. The music is beautiful! Enjoy!
