Schabuwan, who uploaded this audio to YouTube, wrote on March 15, 2012: From an old audio tape recorded once from a radio broadcast. It's my very favorite recording of this cantata. I've been asking many people but nobody could tell me WHO IS SINGING ON THIS and where I can find this recording to buy it.
I think it can be Anna Reynolds. Her version on CD is much faster although the tape already ran too fast while playing back. This here recording seems to be never archived or ever published.
