- Aus der Tiefe ruf ich, BWV 745
[2:27] (A=465)
The text is probably based on Psalm 130, and the tune is often sung during Lent as "Forty days and forty nights." A full harmonization of the chorale

Fach; PD Posaunen Bass 16' + Octaven Bass 8'] precedes an arpeggiated and syncopated accompaniment [Hinterwerk Gedacktes 8' + Rohrfleute 4' + Octava
2' + Suffleute 1'] to the relative unadorned chorale sounded on a HW Cornet [HW Principal 8' + Qvintadena 8' + Spizfleute 4' + Cornett 3 Fach] with PD
Subbass 16' + Octaven Bass 8' in clear support. WAV file is available in RAR format: here (16.2 MB).
