I have a lot of Rilling's cantatas and I rather like them (partly for his
choice of soloists such as Arleen Auger).  Rilling's is not a HIP recording
nor its opposite but something in between: played on modern instruments
but not without obviously having listened to HIP as well.  AFAIK there
doesn;t exist any one satisfying complete set.  In any case the singing
is beautiful in a way many others aren't.
