Product Description

"Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland" ( English text: "Savior of the nations, come") is a Lutheran chorale of 1524 with the text by Martin Luther, based on "Veni redemptor gentium" by Sant'Ambrose of Milan, and a melody, Zahn in 1174, based on its plainchant. It was printed in the Erfurt Enchiridion of 1524. For centuries, the chorale was the prominent hymn for the first Sunday of Advent. It was used widely in organ settings by Protestant Baroque composers, in particular Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), who made several transcripions, most prominent the one for organ. This version was transcribed for piano by Ferruccio Busoni (1866-1924) who was an Italian componist and piano player. My transcription for string instruments is based on this last version.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
