Fecit potentiam is really descriptive of God´s force. I want to say more things, but i dont speak english very well and I dont have words to describethis really good performance of one best work of the master.

Of all the different recordings of the Magnificant, Richter's recording is superb, his interpretation and timing of orchestra and chours is very methodical, especially in the first movement with the trumpets having a very viacarious and somewhat indepedant role from the orchestra, Richter's power with this instrument brings the magificant to a level I feel Bach himself would have wholeheartidly agreed with.
