Notes
Bach's beloved Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme, is known for its solemn beauty and is often referred to as "the first choral prelude". Written for organ, it has been composed by Johann Sebastian Bach and lovingly arranged by Otorino Respighy for a modern music audience. This timeless piece is a beautifully layered statement of faith, representing the Church of the Great Awakening that swept through northern Europe in the 17th century. From the opening of the Passion Choral to its closing codetta, Bach's devotion runs deep as his majestic and undulating organ structures propel the work towards its soaring climax. Whether you have heard this classic before or not, we invite to join us to experience the power of this musical devotion. You are bound to be moved and surprised by its radiant beauty.
