Comment by Bach94 - August 11, 2017 (1 of 1)

Richter's first complete, studio recording of the piece. It's a classic and it is presented in wonderful sound. You feel the singers and instrumental soloists are present in your living room in front of you and the chorus sounds better than it ever has. Highest recommendation, at least for those who love this kind of Bach interpretation.
