Edited by Stephan Blaut and Michael Pacholke. For organ. First Edition. Preface in Ger., Fr. and Eng. In late March 2008, musicologists Stephan Blaut and Michael Pacholke from Halle University discovered a hitherto unknown organ composition by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) among recent acquisitions of the Universitats und Landesbibliothek Sachsen-Anhalt in Halle. The work is a large-scale fantasia based on the chorale Wo Gott der Herr nicht bei uns haelt. The exceptional quality of the composition leaves no doubt as to its author. The chorale fantasia comprises 85 bars and was written between 1705 and 1710. Includes facsimiles and critical commentary in German. Score, 9 p.
