Ten years ago today I uploaded the first version of JSBChorales.net with sets of midi files of the 4-part chorales to download.
To celebrate the anniversary, here are some more favorites from James Pressler and QuickTime files from JSBChorales.net.
From James Pressler (click on the headphone icon):
Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme, the first Schübler Chorale, BWV 645
Erbarm dich mein, o Herre Gott, BWV 721
Herzlich thut mich verlangen, BWV 727
From JSBChorales.net:
Ach bleib bei uns, Herr Jesu Christ, BWV 649
Kommst du nun, Jesu, vom Himmel herunter, BWV 650
Here are many more organ links and articles.
