Cantata BWV 174 "Ich liebe den Höchsten von ganzem Gemüte" (I love God most high with all my heart) was composed by J.S. Bach in Leipzig for Whit Monday [2nd Day of Pentecost] of 1729.

The discography pages of BWV 174 on the BCW have been revised and updated. See:
Complete Recordings (10): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV174.htm
Recordings of Individual Movements (22): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV174-2.htm
The revised discography includes many listening/watching options as part of the recording details. When you click a link to video/audio, a new window will open above the discography page and the video/audio will start to play.
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 is the most comprehensive discography of this cantata. If you are aware of a recording of BWV 174 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.
