Description
A reflective and poignant setting of the Passion Chorale from Bach’s predecessor at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, Johann Kuhnau. Originally scored for solo organ the piece translates well to the string quartet offering an expressive alternative. The viola part can be played by a third violin (included).
Suitable for Holy Week, Good Friday, Passiontide.
