Cantata BWV 27 "Wer weiß, wie nahe mir mein Ende?" (Who knows how near my end is to me?) was composed by J.S. Bach in Leipzig for the 16th Sunday after Trinity of 1726. The cantata is scored for soprano, alto, tenor & bass soloists; 4-part Chorus; and orchestra of horn, 2 oboes, oboe da caccia, 2 violins, viola, obbligato organ & continuo.
The discography pages of BWV 27 on the BCW have been revised and updated. See:
Complete Recordings (17): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV27.htm
Recordings of Individual Movements (4): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV27-2.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 27 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.
You can also read on the BCW the current discussion of the cantata in the BCML (4th round): http://www.bach-cantatas.com/BWV27-D4.htm
