rssAnother Cross Relation
Another cross or false relation in BWV 248.5
Another example of a 'false' cross relation in measure 12 in a chorale from BWV 248, the Christmas Oratorio.

The C sharp in the alto part followed by an C natural in the soprano part in the illustration above would seem to fit all the criteria for a false or cross relation.
But, again the C sharp is at the end of a phrase, and the C natural is at the beginning of the next phrase.
So, once again, I don't think this qualifies as a true cross relation.
