Bach's most beautiful and mysterious piece

Even if you didn't know this was a canon, you might still agree that this piece is beautiful and mysterious in character; add to that the fact that the bottom two voices follow each other in a canon at no less an interval than the seventh (!), and the fact that this piece is beautiful to listen to at all becomes another one of the mysteries of Bach's genius that we are able to enjoy to this day. Bach fashioned the beginning of the canon, and various re-entries throughout, from the notes that form the chorale melody, and I can't begin to imagine the way his mind worked in order to spot that this canon was possible. If you don't know, a canon in music is a device where one voice follows another one exactly according to some rule devised by the composer. Usually a canon is simple and the second voice might just repeat the notes one octave higher or lower, or perhaps at the fifth; the interval of the seventh is very uncommon. This movement is one of five from BWV 769. The chorus effect is provided by the Strymon Brig set to 'multi' mode and the shortest possible delay time. The synth is the Moog Sub37. The reverb is Logic's SilverVerb set to dual mono mode. (Reuploaded with an attempt to fix audio sync issue.)
