Marc Easener's recording is a bit on the slow and consevative side, but his sound is good overall. He is the tubist in the Albion Brass Quintet. Check out their website. It's a tough piece, and I gather that's why none of the "biggies" has given it a shot. The producers of this first recording wanted all first-time concerto recordings. I'm sure that as the piece becomes more accepted, more orchestras (19th century monsters that tend to choke on 21st century food) will be more likely to tackle the work. Don't discount Marc's work. It gives us some of the first study.

My thoughts only
