Oley, Wie gross ist des Allmächt'gen Güte

A chorale prelude to "Wie gross ist des Allmächt'gen Güte" is not something you come often across. And there appear to be several melodies in use for this particular choral. As far as I know Oley is the only one who uses this melody. An exeption might be the choral prelude by Johann Adam Hiller, but I've only seen the first two bars of that one. So this composition is a bit of a rare one. Oley writes a nicely flowing three part texture that seems to me to focus more on the 'good' (Güte") than ond the great ('gross').

The recording was done with the Hauptwerk software and the sample set of the Holzey organ of St. Peter and Paul in Weissenau by Prospectum (https://www.prospectum.com/index.php?language=english&id1=2&id2=9).

The link to my website is already in my Hive-account description.
I publish my work on HIVE for more than five years now. First as partitura, and when that account got hacked as primalamusica. I should not have to prove anything to you. If you want to have some moral judgement about what people post here, at the very least make sure your research is done correctly!
