Ob sichs anliess, als wollt er nicht

Ob sichs anliess, als wollt er nicht (a and b)

The source cantata:

Title: Ärgre dich, o Seele, nicht

No.: 186

Date: 1723

Occasion: Trinity VII

The transcriptions and their source movement:

Movement: No. 6: The chorale movement Ob sichs anliess, als wollt er nicht, based on v. 12 of the hymn Es ist das Heil uns kommen her

Tune: From the 15th century / Nürnberg 1524

Text: "Ob sichs anliess, als wollt er nicht, / lass dich es nicht erschrecken; / denn wo er ist am besten mit, / da will ers nicht entdecken. / Sein Wort lass dir gewisser sein, / und ob dein Herz spräch lauter Nein, / so lass dir doch nicht grauen."

Originally scored for: Choir, oboe I-II, stgs. & cont.

Transcribed as: A trio movement for organ in two versions:
a) A version with cantus firmus in the right hand.
b) A version with cantus firmus in the pedal (2'; range: from F to f).
Version b) can eventually be played on one manual + ped.

Key in the cantata: F Major

Key in the transcriptions: F Major

Comments: Apart from the reduction of voices only few changes have been made. In some places there are two eighths at the same time in the right hand. If you prefer a trio movement as regular as possible, you can eventually omit some (or all?) of the lower eighths.
