Buy "Cantata No. 47 Wer sich selbst erhöhet, der soll erniedriget werden, BWV 47: II Aria - "Wer ein wahrer Christ will heissen" [Boy Soprano]" on:
iTunes
@redbrian3655 - Yes, Harnoncouurt - And the boy is Peter Jelosits, listed in Wiener Sängerknaben 1969-75, later a decent tenor. He was the soprano soloist in most of the H&L cantata series from BWV 43 to BWV 68, also in some earlier ones, though not as many the BCSD listing suggests. He was not named at first, as Wiener Sängerknaben refused to name their boy soloists. Later Peter´s parents made him sort of a freelancer and his name was used in accordance with WSK.
Originally this music consists of organ obligato, basso continuo, and soprano.

Who is the wonderful boy soprano singing? Which conductor is this? Harnoncourt?
