- Dies sind die heil'gen zehn Gebot' (Fughetta), BWV 679
[2:23]
This delightful Fughetta makes the Ten Commandments actually sound appealing. Similar in feeling to the Gigue Fugue, but much less demanding
technically, this is an attractive piece for one manual that could teach a student to deal with repeated notes and phrasing. Registration 8'
Quintadena+4 Spitzflöte.
Midi File available.
Instrument:
Buzard Opus 3 (1986) - Samples by Brett Milan
- Chorale Text
German:
Dies sind die heil'gen zehn Gebot',
Die uns gab unser Herre Gott
Durch Mose, seinen Diener treu,
Hoch auf dem Berg Sinai.
Kyrie eleis!
English:
These are the holy ten commands,
Which came to us from God's own hands
By Moses, who obeyed His will.
Standing upon Sinai's hill.
Have mercy, Lord!
--Tr. George MacDonald
