This piece sounds simple but shows how Bach could express beautiful and touching music, emotion. I like your registration for the slow melody, supported by the other registrations and the calm pedal. I think the baiance is perfect. Good job!

The registration, beautiful Organteq sound, and your tempo - I find it moving and meditational.
Actually, very good rendition. I could have had the piece for my son's funeral.

Thank you J Unruh, for sharing

Best wishes,

very beautiful.  this is my favorite Bach chorale prelude.  i've spent a lot of time with the piano arrangements by Busoni and Kempff.

Hello Budo,
unfortunately I have only just read your kind words. I was very pleased to read your comment.

The piano versions by Busoni are very demanding to play. my appreciation.

Best regards
