Cantata BWV 19 "Es erhub sich ein Streit" (There arose a strife) was composed by J.S. Bach in Leipzig for the Feast of St Michael and All Angels of 1726. The cantata is scored for soprano, tenor & bass soloists; 4-part Chorus; and orchestra of 3 trumpets, timpani, 2 oboes, taille (or oboe da caccia), 2 violins, viola & continuo.
The discography pages of BWV 19 on the BCW have been revised and updated. See:
Complete Recordings (24): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV19.htm
Recordings of Individual Movements (12): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV19-2.htm
The revised discography includes many listening/watching options to recordings directly from the discography pages, just below the recording details.
I also put at the BCW Home Page: http://www.bach-cantatas.com/
2 audios & 2 videos of the cantata. A short description below the audio/video image is linked to the full details at the discography pages.
I believe this are the most comprehensive discography of the cantata. If you are aware of a recording of BWV 19 missing from these pages, or want to correct/add details of a recording already presented on the BCW, please do not hesitate to inform me.
