Few things in this world exceed the beauty of great chorales and other music which incorporates great chorales.
Some wonderful chorales...
'In Deep Distress' - Johann Sebastian Bach (performed by Pierre Cochereau in 1959 on the Cavaille-Coll organ at Cathedrale Notre Dame de Paris, France)
'O Man, Bemoan They Grievous Sins' - Johann Sebastian Bach (performed by Michael Murray on the Muller organ at Sint-Bavokerk in Haarlem, NE)
'In Thee is Joy' - Johann Sebastian Bach (performed by Ton Koopman)
Sonata no. 6 in D minor 'Our Father in Heaven' -Felix Mendelssohn (performed by Peter Hurford on the Rieger organ at the Ratzeburg Cathedral)
There is much, much, MUCH more great chorale music out there! This is just a grain off the tip of the iceberg!
