For years I have owned and enjoyed JEG's Archiv recording. Having heard CD Review on 30 March, I'm tempted by the new John Butt recording. Before taking the plunge I'd like some help from fellow MBers. What other OVPP versions should I consider? And has anyone any views on JEG's more recent live SDG recording. Looking forward to some interesting discussion....

Suzuki/Bach Collegium Japan's version on BIS is the most aurally lush (sacred?) version I have heard, though. It's available to stream on Qobuz and Spotify, but the CDs are very pricey (£20+).It loved to happen. -- Marcus Aurelius

I downloded the Dunedin version from Linn over the weekend - then spent most of Sunday listening to Bach from the RAH.
What I've heard so far has been excellent - note I'm not a musician, I fall under the 'I know what I like when I hear it' category. It has excellent sound quality - I downloaded the 24/96 version.
I think I'll pass on the optional (free) download of German sermons to add to the recording.Steve
