Additional Information:
The closing chorale from J.S. Bach's cantata no. 56 "Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen" (1726) in which other sections are sung by a lone bass voice. The melody is composed by Johann Crüger in 1649. Short chorals in Bach's vocal music are typically based on older psalms with an added harmony and some times also orchestration. Lyrics by Johann Franck.

nyingen	Gorgeous, just gorgeous. It's hard to go wrong with Bach's sacred choral works, they are amazing. I very much enjoy Virgill's dark additions. The final few seconds aren't quite right IMO; the major chord struck by the accompaniment feels out of place and slightly cheesy. Everything else is absolutely spot-on though. A really cool piece.
