    Dear friends, I am looking for a TTBB version of the Bach/Walter chorale 'Christ, unser Herr, zum Jordan kam'; Does anyone have an idea where to find it?
    Thanks,
    Dirk

    Do you mean a published arrangement? The Bach harmonization (SATB) could be sung TTBB by lowering the upper two voices an octave and raising the pitch a full step. https://www.cpdl.org/wiki/images/a/ab/Ws-bwv-chr7.pdf
    It would sound "barbershop" in places, with a line above the melody, and the alto8va line would alter the traditional bass line, but it would be recognizably Bach.
