J S Bach, Liebster Jesu, wir sind hier, BWV 731

Learning to play the organ using Johann Sebastian Bach's chorale prelude Liebster Jesu, wir sind hier, BWV 731 Playing and speaking about this piece today was entirely spontaneous. I had gone to the church because a very dear friend and colleague, the organist and wonderful composer Jon Blamire, died the previous night and I needed to think what I would play at his funeral. This prelude was my first choice - and I wanted to share it with you. The series is presented by Dr Tim Rishton (https://www.rishton.eu) This episode was recorded in Sola Chapel (formerly Sola Church) in Norway. Details of the organ can be found on https://ryde-berg.no/opus/003-sola-kirke .
