Partita on Jesu, meine Freude

This five-movement partita on Johann Cruger's well-known tune begins with a setting of the chorale, followed by a peaceful aria. The third movement is a delightful trio, followed by a very creative duo that is based on the fourth stanza of the hymn. The piece ends in a fiery fugue. Even though the piece has challenges, it is not overly difficult, and the movements will work well separately. Useful for worship services or in recitals. Contents: I. Choral; II. Aria; III. Trio; IV. Duo; V. Fugue.
