- Jesu, meine Freude (Jesus, my joy/Jesus, priceless treasure) BWV 610 (from the Orgelbüchlein) by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), played on the 1963 Åkerman & Lund organ in Rättvik Church, Rättvik, Sweden. The organ has some pipe material, as well as its façade, from the previous 1879 Åkerman organ. Here I'm using: Bröstverk (Chest division): Trägedackt 8', Tremolo; Pedal: Subbas 16', Borduna 8'.

For the Second Sunday of Advent I give you a little meditation, signed J. S. Bach.🕯🕯This hymn was associated with Christmas in Bach’s days, but I think it’s even better for Advent, and I’m gonna tell you why: the first three words, "Jesu, my joy" are perhaps a bit misleading, for this hymn doesn’t describe jolliness, but is a prayer that Jesus would be our joy and our heart’s desire, and that we would turn away from all earthly distractions, that all mournful spirits go away, for now Jesus enters in. And that is what Advent is: a time of preparing ourselves for the advent (=arrival) of Christ in the stable.👶🫏🐑🌟Bach only writes tempo indications for a handful of his many chorale preludes, but here he writes 'Largo', to make sure that it’s really played slowly. Also, he picks a dark key, C minor, which is lower than his other settings of this hymn, all in all creating one of the most sombre and mysterious chorale preludes in his entire production.🌚✨Hope you like it, and as always - don’t forget to click the thumbs-up and subscribe!😃

I really like this one.. it can be played in so many different ways depending on the mood...
It’s one of those pieces I always wanted to play but I never got around to (despite it being so short!), but I always (like for 20 years or more) knew I was gonna play it on this stop…!
Contemplation!
