Bach - Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ BWV 639 - Van Doeselaar | Netherlands Bach Society

There is far more happening in the simple chorale prelude 'Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ' BWV 639, performed here by Leo van Doeselaar for All of Bach, than would appear at first hearing. Still waters run deep. The slow, gentle melody of Agricola’s 16th-century hymn ‘Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ’ is supported by the pedal in a calmly progressing accompaniment. Recorded for the project All of Bach on 21st October 2014 s at St. Catherine's Church, Hamburg.
