I feel rather more like I'm listening to the beat of a metronome than music. If I am not mistaken then do let me know if any of you too see the emperor unclothed.
Peter Schreier is hard to top. This tenor is all articulation, there are some serious breath support problems here. Not enjoyable at all. I disagree about the Munich Orch recording however. I think they take themselves way too seriously, Bach should be played leggiero most of the time. The Munich orch is way too heavy and pompous.
Beautiful music in itself, but the Karl Richter version with the Munich Bach Orch & Choir is infinetely more impressing (a.o. with baritone Fischer-Dieskau and tenor Peter Schreier).
I really hate modern professional singing. Rather hear an amateur choir and soloists.

I do not agree at all. The Karl Richter's version is completely missing the intention of the speech.
Too slow... it seems a romantic piece and not baroque.
I don't recommend that version and really I prefer the Harnoncourt's one.
