Bach's Cantata 140

Can any of you highbrow folk (you know who you are) tell me if there is a definitive recording out there for Bach's Cantata 140 (Wauchet auf...)? I was listening to the St. Matthew Passion this evening and remembered that I love the Cantata 140 as well. But buying classical music in the dark is so scary; you just never know what you're going to get.

In other minutia, I had to run to the mall to get a new garage door opener battery, and while there, I decided to treat myself to some Subway. The guy making my sandwich told me that anything he touched was amazing. I didn't believe him until I took the first bite of my sandwich, but he was right! Absolute best Subway sandwich I have ever tasted in my life--bar none!

Now I'm doing some research and watching the MSU/PITT game on my computer. Technology is amazing, isn't it? I've also been working on a poem, for the first time in forever. Hopefully you'll see it out here sometime soon.

Happy Saturday, my friends!

I think I have a CD of 140, but I'll have to dig through all my stuff to find it. I'm not excatly sure where it is.
Happy Easter!

Hello there. I stumbled upon your blog and have a simple answer for you: Teldec Classics Int'l label (distributed by Warner Music), a 1983-1984 recording by Concentus musicus Wien, conducted by Nikolaus Harnoncourt. It's like listening to God speak.
