Product Description
I was very taken by Ferruccio Busonis transcription of J.S. Bachs Chorale Preludes for organ. I am not familiar with the original version mainly because I dont enjoy listening to organ music; except when it is in a jazz context, like Jimmy Smith and Joey DeFrancesco.
Using Busonis version as a model I re-did all nine of his Bach Chorale Preludes in my fashion and then I realized that I needed three more to make a nice simple dozen. So I looked at Max Regers transcriptions of the Bach Chorale Preludes and found three that would fit into my twelve-movement work.
I. Andante Komm, Gott Schöpfer, heiliger Geist
II. Adagio Wachet aufm ruft uns die Stimme
III. Andante Nun komm der Heiden Heiland
IV. Presto Nun freut euch, lieben Christen, gmein
V. Largo Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ
VI. Moderato Herr Gott, nun schleuß den Himmel auf
VII. Largo Durch Adams Fall ist ganz verderbt
VIII. Allegro In dir ist Freude
IX. Adagio Jesus Christus, unser Heiland
X. Moderato O Mensch, bewein dein Sünde groß
XI. Presto Ach wie nichtig, ach wie flüchtig
XII. Largo Christ lag in Todesbanden
Enjoy!!!
