BONUS: J.S. Bach-Stiftung BWV 61 ”Amen, amen!” recording review and comparison

In this bonus episode, we return to the transcendent joy of the final chorale of BWV 61 "Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland" to review a recording from the J. S. Bach Foundation (J.S. Bach-Stiftung). The lightning speed pleads for Jesus the "Crown of Joy" to return without delay in this performance directed by Rudolf Lutz.    Thank you to the J. S. Bach Foundation for permission for A Moment of Bach to utilize this recording for a podcast episode.   "Amen, amen!" chorale, Bachstiftung (J. S.
