In addition to being translated into so many different languages, this melody was used by Paul Simon as inspiration for his 'American Tune', too. Hear this performance from the St Matthew Passion in full here - https://thebachchoir.org.uk/the-st-matthew-passion/ | The Bach Choir

Have you heard this before? Paul Simon's American Tune is also a chorale from Bach's St. Matthew Passion and has many other settings in addition to those. This week I'm sharing some of my most popular videos as I work on some new developments. #paulsimon #bach #clasicalmusic | David Asher Brown

American Tune is one of our favourite Paul Simon songs to sing. One of our fondest memories of touring is performing this song to a near-sellout crowd at the stunning Festival Theatre in Edinburgh in January last year. Near the end of last year, we got together in our studio to sing it together again. Such a powerful song! We hope you are all keeping safe and remaining positive during these testing times. | Simon and Garfunkel Through The Years
