In Reply to: Bach's B Minor Mass - Which One? posted by mbmiller@bcpl.net on March 22, 2007 at 17:18:34:
[Excerpt]Now three decades old, this extraordinary performance remains unchallenged as the recording of choice for those who want a "modern" reading of the work that is at the same time mindful of stylistic issues. Richter's charismatic, passionate, incisive, and pulse quireading is the logical extension of the Ramin approach, but it is more polished, less rough hewn. This vividly recorded account remains the paradigm against which all "modern instrument" performances of the Mass in B Minor must be measured.
