BWV 650 Corrected

Schübler chorale 6, Come thou, Jesu, from heaven to earth (Kommst du nun, Jesu, vom Himmel herunter)

This morning I realized that the QT file of the sixth Schübler chorale has the chorale melody an octave too low. I missed the organ pedal marking, 4 fuss, meaning that it sounds an octave higher than written.

Since it is an alto aria, this makes sense, since it would be in the wrong range as I had it.

Here is the corrected file:

BWV 650

And since I have developed a fondness for the chorale an octave lower, here is the uncorrected version.

BWV 650, chorale an octave low
