Program notes

The Orgelbüchlein, BWV 599-644 is a collection of chorale preludes composed for organ by Johann Sebastian Bach. Central to the collection is the chorale prelude Christe, du Lamm Gottes, BWV 619 composed by Bach in 1714.   Christe, du Lamm Gottes, BWV 619 is a unique and melodious composition that combines complex rhythmic elements with a beautiful harmonic progressions. The structure of the composition is highly advanced and Bach uses counterpoint masterfully.   Bach uses the chorale melody to provide a vocal line over rich harmonic progressions. The vocal line is layered over a series of organ chords, which serve as an accompaniment. The combination of both melodic and harmonic elements gives the piece great depth and complexity.   By providing a powerful vocal component to the composition Bach also creates an emotional connection with the listener. The beauty of Bach's composition lies in its ability to transport the listener to a spiritual realm that is only achieved through contemplation and devotion.   Bach also incorporates more traditional elements of musical composition such as tempo and dynamic contrast. This adds a great amount of variety and creates a variety that holds the listener's interest throughout the piece.   There is no doubt that Christe, du Lamm Gottes, BWV 619 is one of Bach's greatest masterpieces and it is a timeless musical tribute to God.
