This is high on my list too. I had a couple of the lps at one time and
they were lovely. I adore the repertoire and am anxious to see how they
fare against the Panochca on Supraphon and the Naxos set.

You don't know what you are missing! It's lovely playing!

I have noticed that the Gardiner cantata set on the whole has been a dud in
the sales dept. I have heard a couple of them, and I must say, that my old
enthusiasm for JEG is waning. I find that Rilling, Herrewegghe and Suzuki
are producing much more interesting Bach.
