This intense setting of the hymn "From Depths of Woe" (AUS TIEFER NOT) by Martin Luther (1483-1546) was originally composed by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) for organ (BWV 686). It is a unique six-part setting in which four voices are played by the hands and two by the feet. Bach places the melody of the hymn in the top pedal part. Scored for two trumpets, French horn, two trombones, Euphonium, and Tuba, this arrangement for Brass Ensemble places the chorale melody (cantus firmus) in the Trombone 2 part. This part can be doubled by another French horn so that the hymn tune stands out from the thick polyphony. The original setting has been transposed down a major third.
