Again a piece that may or may not have been composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. It is an elegant piece in which the chorale melody flows in long lines, accompanied by faster eigth notes in a ternary rythm. Peculiar in this piece is that the soprano voice interrupts its play of long notes in bar 32 and joins the alto voice in the ternairy rythm.
