Ideal for Holy Week, this setting of Ah, Holy Jesus features a poignant melody that enhances this deeply personal Passion hymn text.
The organ accompaniment, written in a Neo-Baroque style, lends the needed gravitas. The vocal parts (SATB) require minimal rehearsal.

A lovely, contemplative setting of this beautiful text. A new melody and an effective accompaniment. Well scored for a church choir to learn without extended rehearsal time and without solo voices, although solos could be used in the early unison sections.
