Best Bach St. Matthews Passion


My wife and I will be attending a performance of this at Valparaiso University with Helmuth Rilling as guest conductor. Do any of you have any recommendations of good performances and/or recordings of this piece? Thanks, Doug

Helmuth Rilling is one the the foremost Bach specialist in the world today. Search out a recording by him. There is a complete recording with the Stutrgart Bach Collegium on the Hanssler Label. You know they will pronounce the German correctly. There is also an older shorted version to one CD that has just the Arias and Choruses. Same group $7.99 ---
