Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring
Publisher Desc.
This beloved work by J. S. Bach is arranged here for Violin with a fully
realized keyboard part that is accessible to intermediate players and can be
played on piano, organ, or harpsichord. It is perfect for weddings, concerts,
or solo/ensemble repertoire and is able to be used with the Choral Edition
(S0.1010811). For worship, it can be performed almost any time since it
exudes peace and joy, but it is particularly suited for Advent and Christmas
since it comes from Cantata 147, "Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben"
("Heart and Mouth and Deeds and Life"), a cantata about Mary, the
mother of Jesus, visiting her cousin Elizabeth and singing the Magnificat
(see Luke 1:26-56). An optional part is provided for Cello/Bassoon. An
arrangement with an easier keyboard part is also available (S0.1011523) as
are arrangements for other instruments and ensembles. For more music and
