- Erschienen ist der herrlich Tag, Op. 65, No. 25
[1:15]
Initial imitation between Soprano and Tenor voices emphasizes the fanfare implicit in the Chorale. Nine-voice chords, terrace dynamics and 3 Generals
transform 7 stops into a 3-manual organ. Gen 1 emulates Great and Pedal: Zwelwerk Schalmei 8' + Octaaf 2' coupled to HW Holpijp 8' + Octaaf 4'
and to PD Subbas 16' + HW/PD. Gen 2 triggers Swell - Zwelwerk Schalmei 8' + Gemshoorn 8' + Blokfluit 4' + Octaaf 2' coupled to empty HW. Gen
3 masquerades as Choir - Zwelwerk Gemshoorn 8' + Blokfluit 4' coupled to empty HW. Impulse reverberation added.

Erschienen ist der herrlich' Tag,
d'ran sich Niemand g'nug freuen mag:
Christ, unser Herr, heut' triumphiert,
all' sen' Feind' ergefangen führt. Alleluia.

On earth has dawned this day of days
Whereon let all men give God praise!
For Christ is risen from the tomb
And on his foes declared just doom. Alleluia!
