Poulenc Sextet Winds/Piano - recommend good recording

Author: Ski

I heard a recording of a live performance of the Poulenc Sextet for Winds & Piano on the radio the other day. It was performed by the Imani winds. I fell in love with the piece and I have the score on order. But the Imani performance doesn't seem to be available on CD so I'd like to get a recommendation for a good recording of this piece. Suggestions please!

Regards,

Ski

Ski,

There's a nice recording with James Levine and Ensemble Wien-Berlin on the Deutsche Grammephon lable.

There is also a reissue on Boston Records with the Philadelphia Woodwind Quintet and Poulenc himself is playing the piano part.
