Ep. 120: A Double Canon (4 Parts from 2 Lines)

A double canon from Bach’s Orgelbüchlein! A bit late, but Bach’s take on this Christmas tune is really wonderful. See how both melodies combine to make a double canon:

German mystic, Heinrcih Seuse, author of ‘In Dulci Jubilo’

English composer R. J. Pearsell’s setting of the melody.
