Johann Christoph Oley, Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern

This chorale prelude on “Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern” is for two manuals and pedal. Oley made a sparkling piece, in reference to the title of the chorale. When I made the recording I was under the impression that bar 10 was meant not to be played in the repetition. I now think that impression was wrong, so the recording deviates a bit from the score.

The recording was done the sampleset, made by Sonus Paradis, of the Transept organ in the Laurenskerk, Rotterdam.
