Bach - Herzlich tut mir verlangen BWV 727 - Havinga | Netherlands Bach Society

’Herzlich tut mich verlangen’, performed by Matthias Havinga for All of Bach, is one of about 24 chorale texts that were sung to this melody around 1739. This chorale arrangement is compact and multifaceted, yet expressive as well. Bach reinforces the plaintive character of the hymn with sighing dissonants and expressive harmonic timbres, without focusing on one particular text. Recorded for the project All of Bach on September 21st 2016 at St Bavo’s Church, Haarlem. If you want to help us complete All of
