From the Eighteen Leipzig chorales written near the end of Bach's life. A quiet yet voluptuous setting of Martin Luther's Advent Chorale, "Saviour of the Gentiles, Come." This version expresses a palpable yearning for a long awaited redemption. For many years I made it a practice of playing this piece on the First Sunday of Advent. [4:47]
