This review is from: Bach: Cantatas BWV 98, BWV139 & BWV16 (Audio CD)
If you are interested in this recording, you might want to know that for about $60 you can get Sacred Masterpieces / Cantatas, which includes this one, as well as many others by Gardiner and these artists (the Monteverdi Choir, the English Baroque Soloists):
- Bach - Christmas Oratorio / Gardiner (2 disks; ~ $34) - Bach: St. Matthew Passion / Rolfe Johnson, Bonney, von Otter, Chance, Crook; Gardiner (3 disks, currently not available directly through amazon) - Bach: St. John Passion / Gardiner, The English Baroque Soloists (2 disks; ~ $34) - Bach - Mass in B minor / Argenta, Nichols, Chance, Stafford, Milner, W. Evans, Gardiner (2 disks; ~ $30) - Bach: Magnificat, BWV. 243; Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen (~ $14) - Bach: Advent Cantatas (~$16) - Christmas Cantatas (~16) - Bach: Cantatas, BWV 82. 83, 125, 200 (~ $18) And so on. I'm tired of doing that. Even if you already own MOST of these recordings, this is still a bargain, maybe the single best bargain I've ever encountered in classical music. All beautiful, justly famous works by one of the most devout and talented composers in European history. All either the most widely respected recordings, or among them; all by talented artists dedicated to period performance. The little booklet that comes with the disks is just a track listing, but as the other reviewer mentioned the lyrics and translations are available online. |
