About This Song
About "Vom Himmel hoch da komm ich her, BWV 769 - Orch. Stravinsky : J.S. Bach: Vom Himmel hoch da komm ich her, BWV 769 - Orch. Stravinsky: Var.V: L'altra sorte del canone al rovescio" by Tanglewood Festival Chorus
Stravinsky's orchestration of Bach's 'Vom Himmel hoch' canon variation is a mechanical angel. The Tanglewood Festival Chorus (instrumental) spins a precise, clockwork counterpoint that feels both heavenly and unnerving. Calm order dissolves into a quiet vertigo—a ladder to heaven that never quite reaches.
