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)

I still prefer Klemperer's Brahms' German Requiem to all the others I've heard (especially as remastered for EMI's Great Recordings of the Century, MUCH more detail comes through). And I've heard most of the recordings ever made of it (or so it seems). :^)
