About this Work

Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring - cover imageFantastic piece for Church Wedding Ceremonies.

When Bach took up his post as Cantor at Leipzig in 1723 he had to provide a new work each week. The chorale 'Jesu bleibet meine Freude' known in English as 'Jesu, joy of man's desiring' comes from Cantata no. 147, first performed on 2 July 1723. The arrangement for concert harp is by David Watkins, and is dedicated to
Frank Sternefeld.
