Talk:Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ, BWV 177

Film music is the organ prelude, not this cantata
I removed the following section from the cantata that doesn't belong here because it's about the organ prelude, not the cantata:

Use in films

The soundtrack of the 1972 film Solaris by Andrei Tarkovsky features the chorale prelude for organ,Ich ruf' zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ, and an electronic score by Eduard Artemyev.

The prelude is the central musical theme of Solaris. Tarkovsky initially wanted the film to be devoid of music and asked composer Artemyev to orchestrate ambient sounds as a musical score. The latter proposed subtly introducing orchestral music. In counterpoint to classical music as Earth's theme is fluid electronic music as the theme for the planet Solaris. The character of Hari has her own subtheme, a cantus firmus based upon J. S. Bach's music featuring Artemyev's composition atop it; it is heard at Hari's death and at story's end.

A piano transcription was featured in the trailer for Michael Haneke's Amour as well used in the film in the form of a character playing it onscreen. It was also present on the soundtrack album as recorded by pianist Alexandre Tharaud.

Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac uses mostly classical music as its background score and this prelude features as one of the primary themes in the film.

It is played (in piano transcription - Bach/Busoni) at the end of "Ida", a 2013 Polish drama film directed by Paweł Pawlikowski

So far the quote. If this information is needed, please place it better, and with a reference for each fact. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:22, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

Agricola's hymn?
There seems to be some doubt about whether the attribution of the original hymn to Agricola is at all reliable. (I am judging from this page, but I don't know that it is a reliable source.) Does anyone have better information about this? I notice that the Johannes Agricola page makes no mention of his being a hymnist. --JBritnell (talk) 11:20, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
