Organ Prelude in a Baroque Style (based on "In dulci jubilo")
0
My annual Christmas composition! This year, its an organ prelude based on the Christmas Hymn "In dulci jubilo", or in the English version, "Good Christian Men Rejoice." It is written in a Baroque style reminiscent of Bach and its one of the first times I've done a legitimate style-copy of Baroque music.
Merry Christmas to all!

If you were indeed attempting to grasp the Baroque style, you hit the mark pretty well. It's a well-rounded organ piece, short and entertaining. Merry Christmas to you too...
Tokke, I don't think of this as a close Baroque style, definitely aspects of it, the harmonies roughly follow the style. But I think some of the voice leading - the similar motion in some voices and how you move to the mediant or resolve the B flat - A discord are a bit un-Bach like.
It is something more in between Mendelssohn and Bach really. Harmonies Baroque but the voice leading and harmonic movement (not overall harmonic plan - that is quite Baroque) st time suggest a later period.
But who cares? It sounds like it will be a hit and with good registration, a good addition to a Christmas service. Congrats.

Excellent work! This is perfect as a voluntary for Christmas Day. I agree it was a little too advanced harmonically to be in strict baroque style, but this is actually a strength of the music as it shows some individual input to the idiom. There were a few moments where the music was in danger of cycling round the same chords as you harmonised the melody - remember thinking this about b.25-6 but otherwise fine. The writing looks completely idiomatic to the instrument, and I think it would benefit from some appropriate changes in registration by a live organist.
Well, i like the piece, maybe not very baroque in the harmony. And the thing you do that Bach dont is all the paralell fifths 
So the term stylecopy is not very correct!
