Praise Be to Christ: Partita on "O grosser Gott"
Explores the tune with a stately introduction, an accessible two-voice duo, a playful trio, a reflective pastorale, and an energetic finale.
Written with similar styles as Hildebrand’s popular partita on NUN FREUT EUCH, this partita explores the hymn tune O GROSSER GOTT with a stately introduction, an accessible two-voice duo, a playful trio with easy melody lines in the pedal, a reflective pastorale, and an energetic finale. An additional movement provides an alternate hymn harmonization for congregational singing. This tune is also commonly associated with the hymn “O God of God, O Light of Light.”
