There are several lyrics and titles to this hymn tune. Pachelbel (1653-1706) used 'Werde munter, mein Gemüte' (Become cheerful, my mind). Bach used this tune in the Leipzig version of his cantata Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben, BWV 147, in 1723. While Bach often composed 4-part chorales to end a cantata, he embedded such a setting here in a pastoral instrumental concerto. This music became famous in several transcriptions among others in a piano transcription as Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.(+)
