Der Tag, der ist so freudenreich, BuxWV 182

Dieterich Buxtehude (1637 – 1707) was a Danish organist and composer of the Baroque period. He is one of the most important composers of the so called North German organ school. As a composer who worked in various vocal and instrumental idioms, Buxtehude's style greatly influenced other composers, such as Johann Sebastian Bach and others.

Hereby a fine Christmas chorale prelude, played with the very nice combination of Sexquialtra and Dulcian 16 as cantus firmus.
