J. S. Bach: Ach wie fluechtig, BWV 644 (G minor)

The last chorale from Das Orgelbuechlein, this is a
breezy portrayal of how fleeting life is. The flowing
of waters, the drifting of clouds and something
unspeakably futile about man's ascent and waning,
scholars have read all that into this tiny piece. 
Virtual performance using samples from the organ of
Boezemkerk in Bolnes (Ridderkerk) Holland (1959) by
