  • @madziua90 sadly, you have s**t for brains and a lump of coal for a heart... not your fault - you were born that way.

  • love the sind blitze sind donner, and Richter's precise brilliant style of conducting :)

  • @WinGeorgia I must disagree with you. I find this by far the most powerful composition of Bach, but I also think this recording is somewhat cold and slow, which is surely also because of the year it was recorded. I'm missing the emotion and I hope that doesn't say anything about my knowledge of classical music..

  • The choir is really good and the soloists do a great job. The only bad thing is the organ which is a bit too dominant during the part "Sind Blitze und Donner in Wolken verschwunden".

  • Thanks, everyone in this video for all of your hard work..the sumation of all of you give rise to such a wonderful piece of music to delight the world over..:)

  • I love this :)

  • I don't really like Bach, since we had began learning this whole stuff... But I just can't get this piece out of my head! :D

  • @WinGeorgia Translation: 'Bach's Musik is very important for me, very personal and spiritual.'

  • @alipitogen I've listened once more, and in case anyone picks me up on this, I realise that the Munchinger recording I mentioned does not move all that much more quickly.The difference is more that this seems to drag while Munchinger's seems more driven and flowing.

  • Some of these clips from this performance are absolutely spell-binding and this one nearly is.These top-notch performers almost overcome the cripplingly slow tempo but it is doomed from the start. I think the ideal tempo is set by Munchinger in 1964 with Ameling and Hoffgen. Some more recent performances err to the other extreme, losing all the tension to breathless urgency. All opinion , of course. Never saw Helen Donath before, though I have several recordings, quite a beauty -also opinion!
