I really like Collard's cycle and it does have the added benefit of Previn's conducting:

^^ I have these two so far Fergus:-

I like these pieces; they are pretty light and very engaging. The Roge/Dutoit recordings are fine, if a little staid. The Hough/Oramo set is an absolutely wonderful set, and absolutely the one to opt for

Not my favourite pieces, but the performances on that set make them shine. You'll love it I bet.

^^ we need a larger photo of that Collard/Previn set please Sean ;-)

I haven't tried that one yet. The Ciccolini/Baudo was cheaper and had a grand review in one of my record guides so opted for that ;-)
