I love this concerto. The easiest recording to get is "Perantoni Plays Perantoni" on Mark Records. I found it online here:

This is with the Illinois band--I'm not sure if it's live or not.

Winston Morris recorded it with the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra with Jager conducting in the early 1980's. I thought it would be harder to find, but apparently it's also at earfloss.com:

The second one's my favorite, but that could be totally personal. Either recording is representative of the piece.

I don't know anything about Earfloss, so if anyone knows if that's a good/bad company, please chime in.
