I claim no expertise in this music, but I have and enjoy Saccani on Naxos. The performance is enjoyable and the sq is good. And you get all three suites for less than $9.
Happy listening,
Jim

Hmm, the snippets sound nice.
What's funny is the Amazon reviewer who gave it two stars remarked that the LSO recording was significantly better. That's the one led by Marriner. Chris remarked here he didn't care for that one so much.
I indeed didn't care for the Marriner/LACO recording. (BTW, I think you meant LACO rather than LSO?) But I certainly don't have any issue with the quality of the playing or engineering on that recording. It's just that Marriner pushes some movements a bit more than I think they ought to be pushed. IOW, it's personal taste rather than any sort of objective standard of quality.
As for the Naxos recording, I haven't heard it myself. It could also be a very satisfying album.
