There is a fine performance, led by Maurice Peress, of the original, on
MusicMasters 01612-67094-2. I prefer the original to Antheil's much later
revision, the one that usually gets done, although not having heard the
recent webcast, I don't know which version they did.
The CD also contains Antheil's Jazz Symphony, Second Sonata for Violin,
Piano, and Drum, and the String Quartet No. 1.
