Extra Information | The text is the thirteenth stanza of Luther's well known Christmas chorale, "Vom Himmel hoch da komm ich her", which is probably better known in the setting which closes the first part of J. S. Bach's Christmas Oratorio (BWV 248, mvt 9). The date on the first edition is given as 1665, but seemingly this is not correct, see Grusnick, Bruno (1966), "Die Dübensammlung. Ein Versuch ihrer chronologischen Ordnung" (part 2-3), Svensk Tidskrift för Musikforskning, vol 48, p. 90. |
