I have only 3 recordings at the moment.

Sanderling/Berliner SO (1976)

Colin Davis/LSO (2003 live)

Saraste/Finnish Radio SO (1995)

Sanderling sings well with a broad brush strokes.  Davis with dramatic contrast and detailed articuration.  Saraste, an interesting combination of emphasis on both the composers' advanced harmonic sence and classical romanticism.

So far, I enjoy Davis' most.

I found Barbillori/Halle on Ebay (LP) the other day and waiting for the arrival.
