Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg, Mir nach spricht Christus under Held

The second complete choral prelude from the “Zweiter Versuch in figurirten Choräle und Fugen”, by Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg, is a prelude to the choral “Mir nach spricht Christus under Held”. It is a lively composition, with a strong accompaniment, written for the left hand and the pedals, and the choral melody in canon, written for the right hand. It is a relatively short piece, playing it takes only about 100 seconds, but a lot is happening in those seconds.

The recording was done with the Hauptwerk software and the sampleset, made by Sonus Paradisi, of the Schnittger organ in the St. Martini-kerk, Groningen (https://www.sonusparadisi.cz/en/organs/netherlands/groningen-st-martini.html).
