Misc. Comments

The tune's composer is unknown, but this a capella arrangement by Praetorius has become the standard. As one expert wrote, "The four-part setting of the above by Michael Praetorius, 1609, cannot possibly be improved." G.R. Woodward, German Hymnody (From the Twelfth To the Middle Of the Seventeenth Century), J. Royal Music. Assn. 1905;32(1):73-99, at pp. 78-79.
