This brief organ meditation on the Passion chorale is a miniature of absolute purity and simplicity from this amazing musical genius. The programme employs a variety of unusual filming techniques to give a dramatic interpretation of the music. These include using miniature cameras on the inside of the organ to show the mechanical works, and aerial shots from small helium-filled balloons. The titles are by Damien Hirst.
