Georg Böhm - FREU DICH SEHR O MEINE SEELE (12 Variations in a HUGE Organ Partita!)

"FREU DICH SEHR, O MEINE SEELE" by Georg Böhm is the composer's biggest work based on the amount of bars being played. In this video you can hear his huge partita on the hymn played on my Hauptwerk organ on the sample set of Noordbroek by Sonus Paradisi.
It is considered a paramount work of the great composer and it offers 12 variations in total. I have tried making them all sound unique and fresh.

Böhm's most important contribution to North German keyboard music is the chorale partita, a large-scale composition consisting of several variations on a particular chorale melody. He effectively invented the genre, writing several partitas of varying lengths and on diverse tunes. Later composers also took up the genre, most notably Johann Sebastian Bach. Böhm's chorale partitas feature sophisticated figuration in several voices over the harmonic structure of the chorale. His partitas generally have a rustic character and can be successfully performed on either the organ or the harpsichord.
