Bach / Marshall / Baker / Tear, 1978: Mass in B minor, BWV 232 - Marriner (Excerpts, Indexed)

Neville Marriner leads the Academy and Chorus of St. Martin in the Fields Orchestra in this performance (recorded in London in November 1977) of excerpts of Bach’s Mass in B minor, BWV 232. Laszlo Heltay is choral director. From the cassette which you see above (at 2:39; the full cassette covering can be seen at 48:02), which I purchased in the late 1970s shortly after this recording was issued by Philips. Margaret Marshall, soprano; Janet Baker, contralto; Robert Tear, tenor; Samuel Ramey, bass. Note
