Knecht - Chorale Prelude "Freu dich sehr, o meine Seele" - Bätz organ, Den Haag, Hauptwerk

A while back I dived into some old manuscripts to find some (mostly) unknown organ pieces. I found this piece in Knecht's Orgelschule and edited it into a more readable score. Knecht was known as a great admirer of Bach, that's clearly audible in this chorale prelude. Knecht doesn't call it Choralvorspiele but Choralbeispiele, so it's meant as a chorale example.

He was born in Biberach an der Riss, where he learnt to play the organ and violin. He attended a Lutheran collegiate institution in Esslingen am Neckar from 1768 to 1771, when he became Lutheran preceptor and music director in Biberach. He led an energetic, busy musical life; he composed for the theatre and church, organised subscription concerts, and taught music theory, acoustics, aesthetics, composition and instruments at the Gymnasium, which was affiliated to the Musikschule in 1806. He went to Stuttgart in December 1806 in the hopes of a post there as Kapellmeister or similar, but after being appointed Direktor beim Orchester by the King of Württemberg in April 1807, he returned in 1808 to his former life in Biberach where he remained for the rest of his life. (source: Wikipedia) The tune of Freu dich sehr, of meine Seele is the same as the Genevan Psalm 42. Therefore this piece is certainly usable as chorale prelude to Psalm 42.
