Does anyone have a favourite recording of Crusell's concerto No 2 in F minor, and why?

I haven't heard a better version than the one with Tony Pay.
Why? Well, go buy it and find out. But I think it has the most character and he sounds great playing it. Also, the period instrument is a treat, and the orchestra (I think it's AOE) also sounds amazing.

I love Antony Pay's playing as well but If you would like a modern Instrument, it's hard to go past Karl Leister's recording. It's on the BIS label and he's accompanied by the Lahti Symphony Orchestra.
Another option is Martin Frost's recording. These three great artists each bring something a little different.
Chris.
