Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir

In 1524, Martin Luther published his first collection of hymns, from which is taken his magnificent choral Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir (From the depths I call upon you, O Lord)‚ based on Psalm 130 ( De Profundis). In 1724, Johann Sebastian Bach composed a cantata, based on Martin Luther’s chorale of the same name. To create this arrangement for wind band, Jacob de Haan was particularly inspired by the work of Bach.
