Bach - Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten BWV 691 - Schouten | Netherlands Bach Society

’Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten’, performed by Dorien Schouten for All of Bach. Bach cherished a great many of his compositions, ensuring that they were collected or recycled, and – if at all possible – published. But there are also pieces that missed the boat, such as the twenty-four early organ compositions now known as the Kirnbergerschen Sammlung. We owe the survival of these works to Bach’s pupil Johann Kirnberger, who collected twenty-four organ compositions, among other pieces, following the death of his master. The most striking thing about this collection is its lack of cohesion. The only similarity between the works is that they probably all date from the period before 1710. Recorded for the project All of Bach on October 1st 2015 at the Bovenkerk, Kampen.
