Review:
A transparent texture in slow and "melancholy" character along with optional 3 octaves of handchimes make this arrangement of the Hans Leo Hassler tune an excellent choice for the Lenten season. The final two chords are especially dissonant in reference to Jesus' death. 52 measures in length, this rendition is set in g minor.
