Georg Friedrich Kauffmann, Treuer Gott ich muss dir klagen

by admin · October 28, 2017

Kauffmann’s prelude to “Treur Gott ich muss dir klagen” is a bit of a challenge for the listener. The choral melody is well hidden in the tenor voice and not easily discernable. The fact that Kauffmann prescribes the use of the 16 feet principal doesn’t help either. Watch the video to see the choral melody, which helps with actualle hearing it.
I made two versions of the score: a one-pager for saving paper when printing, and a two-pager for use with tablet or monitor (or for printing when you like the more spacious layout).

The recording was done on the sample set of the Müller-organ in the Sint Bavokerk in Haarlem by Voxus Organs for Hauptwerk.
