There is much to admire in Robert King's 1996 recording with the King's Consort. With a sizable group of boy sopranos and altos (but not English boys, whose timbre is quite different from that of these German boys), this performance comes closest of all, perhaps, to the sound of church music as Bach knew it. The chorus consists of 35 members, almost exactly the number Bach might have had at his disposal. The account is splendidly realized and beautifully recorded. Don't be put off by the all-black artwork on the face of the jewel box: inside is a treasure worth discovering. --Ted Libbey

Customer Reviews of Bach: Mass in B Minor, BWV 232
An excelent recording of a masterpiece of 'Ancient' music The boy soprani and alti make the Hohe Messe sweeter, the wonderful tenor and bass brilliant, and the ornaments by the instrument soloists, choir, and director alike, a wonderful performance. Comparing it with my experience in a student's chorus and another recording I almost listened to, it is extremely good (I didn't listen to the other recording because it was no match -with the Puccinni soprani and alti- for this one); when listening to it, and getting excited, and depressed and joyful in each piece, I rate it as magnificent, almost unreachable and touching - perhaps almost as much as it would be, directed by Johann Sebastian Bach himself. Note that the booklet is nearly as exciting (e.g. my noteheads and Joh. Seb. Bach's are, since when I read it, alike). The cover is also very good with a(n invisible to internet-surfers) silver cross. An extraordinarilly perfect performance.
