Bach (arr. Robertson) - Six Schübler Chorales for Two Flutes, Oboe, and Clarinet

Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme; Wo soll ich fliehen hin; Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten; Meine Seele erhebt den Herren; Ach bleib bei uns, Herr Jesu Christ; Kommst du nun, Jesu, vom Himmel herunter auf Erden

Six Schübler Chorales is a name usually given to the Sechs Chorale von verschiedener Art ('Six Chorales of Various Kinds') for organ, issued around 1748. The title 'Schübler Chorales' derives from the engraver and publisher Johann Georg Schübler, who is named on the original title page. These six chorales have been arranged for woodwind ensemble by Donna N. Robertson. Four of the chorales can be played by a trio (Flute, Oboe, Clarinet), and the remaining two require an additional Flute. 

Instrumentation:

• 2 Flutes (Flute 2 is tacet for chorales 1, 2, 5, 6)
• Oboe
• Clarinet
