One should also note M. Towe (sorry i I don't knpow the gender of the author) has a quite interesting discussion of other recordings, giving high (and deserving) praise to both Klemperer, Shaw and Rifkin. From the web site quoted by Clark, I learned that Shaw recorded it first in 1947, on 78s, apparetnly one of the last big recording projects on 78s. Also, in that 1947 recording, the instrumentalists were of a high caliber, for example Oscar Shumsky playing violin. It reminds me of the famous Scherchen recording of the St. Matthew passion, which featured Walter Barylli on violin.
I lack the discipline to be expert on this piece, when I have listened to it, my choices have been Klemperer or Shaw.
