Herzliebster Jesu, was hast du verbrochen, BWV 1093

"Herzliebster Jesu, was hast du verbrochen, BWV 1093" comes from the "Neumeister Collection".

The Neumeister Collection is a compilation of 82 chorale preludes found in a manuscript copy produced by Johann Gottfried Neumeister (1757–1840). When the manuscript was rediscovered at Yale University in the 1980s it appeared to contain 31 previously unknown early chorale settings by Johann Sebastian Bach, which were added to the BWV catalogue as Nos. 1090–1120, and published in 1985.

Neumeister compiled his manuscript after 1790. It has been suggested that the 77 earliest works in the collection may have been copied from a single source, possibly a Bach family album put together in J. S. Bach's early years. The five works by Neumeister's own music teacher, Georg Andreas Sorge, were a later addition.

This performance features the "strings and celeste" of the Positif. It's a very "romantic" sound. All it needs is a swell box... ;-)

Easter music on the way includes works by J. S. Bach, Richard Purvis, Mark Andrews, and the very exciting "Terra tremuit" by Paul Benoit.

Peace and blessings to All!
