Krebs’ Clavier-Übung, William Porter PlaysOne of Bach’s most favored students, Johann Ludwig Krebs (1713-1780) composed works revealing Bach’s influence in their complexity and harmonic daring. His Clavier-Übung is a collection of 39 pieces based on 13 favorite chorales of the 18th century. This is the first complete recording of the pieces, played by William Porter on the 1806 Pehr Schiörlin 2-33 organ in Gammalkil, Sweden, restored in 1996 and recorded on CD for the first time. 39 pieces based on 13 Chorales: Allein Gott Wer nur den Lieben Jesu, meine Freude Christ lag in Todesbanden Ach Gott, vom Himmel sich darein Auf meinen lieben Gott Vater unser in Himmelreich Sei Lob und Ehr dem höchsten Gott Was Gott tut das ist wohlgetan Erbarm dich mein, o Herre Gott Von Gott will ich nicht lassen Warum betrübst du dich Jesus, meine Zuversicht |
