J.S. Bach: Gottes Zeit

Downloadable Score

“Gottes Zeit,” a Sonatina from Actus Tragicus Cantata No. 106, was arranged in February 2016 upon request from a friend who couldn’t find an arrangement she liked among the existing piano transcriptions. Instead of reproducing the eighth notes of the bass line, a suitably pianistic sonority is achieved here by using the pedal to prolong the bass and free both hands to better convey the mood of this exalted piece.
