"The music-making is graceful and stylishly alive to the spirit of the movements. All four singers (veterans of the series) consolidate Kuijken's supple immediacy in the solo arias and duets, but as a 'choir', the balance is sometimes skewed".

"Vurdering: BBC Music choral song choice" - "This is without question an outstanding contribution to Suzuki's complete cantata project".

"Its owes its success to the high quality of the singing and playing overall rather than Genz's virtual absence - as well as some of Bach's best cantata music ever and Kuijken's alert, perfectly judged direction".

"As before in this series, the distilled nobility of the musicianship is heard to greatest effect in the beautifully turned instrumental contributions; the refined textures of joined strings and winds is often breathtakingly sympathetic".

"It is sung exquisitely by Hana Blazíkova and caps another consistently fine performance in the late autumn of Suzuki's steadily impressive marathon".
