Fantasia (after Canzona, WV 74) Uploaded by: ajongbloed Composer: Scheidemann, Heinrich; Karges, Wilhelm Organ: Müller Grote of Sint Bavo extended Software: Hauptwerk IV Views: 58
The prelude to "Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten" is already the third of the 7 choral preludes by Kirchhoff's hand I intend to publish. Kirchhoff gave it the form of an organ Trio with the choral melody as bass melody. It is a bit surprising how simple and straigthforward the piece is written. There is no ingenious counterpoint or complicated harmonic progressions to be found, just a three part texture that does it's job as choral prelude very nicely.
