Have you heard the Harnoncourt Bach cantata edition? He uses boys choirs for the chorus and soprano/alto solos. You can hear a sample http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoY1PdpqRWQ Another sample from one of the Passions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni3_a8o8vks There are plenty of others with Harnoncourt conducting, so I hope this helps!
