J.S. Bach - Cantata Ihr werdet weinen und heulen - BWV 103
The pictures in this video show the Thomanerchor (St. Thomas Choir of Leipzig) and director Günther Ramin (who made this recording).
This choir was founded in 1212, and Bach himself served as the director of the choir from 1723 to 1750.
Although the choir was incorporated into the Hitler Youth in 1937, the director at the time, Günther Ramin, continued to concentrate on Bach and sacred music following the tradition.
