No disrespect to Slava, but my favourite interpretation is by Anner Bylsma. It also demonstrates that HIP interpretations don't necessarily involve faster tempo.
I must admit I found Bylsma a bit fluffy, waffly, woolly - it left me thinking that he'll probably make a really good job of it when he's had a bit more practice!
