Those by CPE Bach in D Minor and by Malcolm Arnold have long been
favourites.  John McCabe's, which I acquired only recently (coupled with
his fourth symphony), was a pleasant surprise.  The pick of the crop for
me is Nielsen's.  And much though I love Mozart, I've never taken to any
of his concertos which feature the flute.
