Vom Himmel hoch

[Dromeus]

This my rendition of Vom Himmel hoch (From Heaven Above) using Genos organ voices. It includes two parts:

- Part 1 is the organ prelude by Johann Pachelbel. Note, that the melody of the tune is played in the bass as a cantus firmus. When I searched the internet for the correct English title, I found this Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vom_Himmel_hoch,_da_komm_ich_her. To my surprise Pachelbel's composition is not only mentioned there, but the first four measures of the score are also included.

- Part 2 is my own harmonisation of this christmas tune. It is quite traditional, but includes a little bit of unusual chords.
