"Fröhlich soll mein Herzen springen" is a choral that is sung on the first day of Christmas. Sorge wrote a festive prelude for this choral melody. The left hand and feet play a fast paced accompaniment to the choral melody in the right hand. Writte in the key of E major it must have caused some uneasy moments on organs in older tunings.
