🎵 JS Bach - Heut triumphieret Gottes Sohn BWV 630 (for Ascension)

I play JS Bach's Heut triumphieret Gottes Sohn BWV 630 from the Orgelbüchlein. Preceding the Organ Chorale is the Hymn upon what the Bach's variation is based. This Chorale can be used at Eastertide, but in the Orgelbüchlein it is specifically earmarked as Ascensiontide.

The organ is Rotterdam, but you probably already guessed that :)

This performance was originally given during a live organ recital on 25th May 2020.

Heut triumphieret Gottes Sohn,
Der vom Tod ist erstanden schon,
Alleluja, Alleluja!
Mit großer Pracht und Herrlichkeit,
Des danken wir ihm in Ewigkeit.
Alleluja, Alleluja!

Dem Teufel hat er sein Gewalt
Zerstört, verheert ihm all Gestalt,
Alleluja, Alleluja!
Wie pflegt zu tun ein starker Held,
Der seinen Feind gewaltig fällt.
Alleluja, Alleluja!

To-day God’s only-gotten Son
Arose from death, and triumph won,
Alleluya, Alleluya,
In mighty pomp and rich array;
His therefore be the praise alway.
Alleluya, Alleluya.

Lo! Death is crushed—nay, Death must die,
By Jesus smitten hip and thigh.
Alleluya, Alleluya.
Like armoured knight, with skilful thrust
Christ made His foeman lick the dust.
Alleluya, Alleluya.
