As far as recording goes, Otto Klemperer without a doubt does the best version of St. Matthew Passion. I love Klemperer's pace in everything that he did.

Any relation to Werner? (Col. Klink)

Yes, Otto the conductor was Werner's dad. They came over to the U.S. in the 30's to get away from Hitler (Werner was 15 at the time).
