Best Recording of Ravel Left-Hand Concerto?

[moose_opus_28]

I'm about to start it since my right hand thumb is out with a bad sprain.  I really don't know the piece, so which recording(s) should I get?

Casadesus with Philadelphia Orchestra-Ormandy (Sony Classical) and Zimmerman with London Symphony-Boulez (DG) are great. I know Fleisher has recorded this piece but I haven't heard it. I would imagine it to be noteworthy.

now I haven't heard another recording besides Ashkenazy, but I liked his alot.

I haven't heard it either but defintely check it out.

I would say listen to Zimerman/Boulez and/or Samson Francois/Cluytens. Best versions I've heard. And while you're in the mood for left hand concertos, listen to Korngold's as well.

For me, the aforementioned Casadesus; I also like the recordings by John Browning and Jean Phillipe Collard...hope your thumb is better now!!
