Have that Hahn recording squirreled away on my watch list. Criticisms range all over the place on various recordings of those -- from too fast tempi that obliterates counterpoint, to ... whatever -- but from what little I've gleaned from samples, this one sounds lovely.

 

NP: Bach Violin Concertos

Collegium Musicum 90, Simon Standage

... which is quite lovely also ...
