    BWV657, the seventh from the collection of eighteen Chorale Preludes.

    Story Behind the Song
    The alto starts, the tenor echoes, the bass joins in and with the music flowing, soaring above, the soprano sings the glorious chorale theme. I heard it first on the radio played by Peter Hurford. I was overawed as it dawned upon me that the hymn's last note was fixed, a magnificent tonic inverted pedal point with shifting harmonies still dancing below, until the last chord; playing it myself, I didn't want to release it.
