Is anyone aware of/ owning a good version of Handel inc. Suite in G minor HWV 432?

I have not heard this recording but its Richard Egarr on Harmonia Mundi (the French label not the similarly named German HM), so you can't go wrong!

 Charivari Agréable,  François Couperin "Le Grand" ‎– Chamber Music For The King. ASV Digital ‎ CD GAU 159,  Europe 1997.

 When I looked at this CD more closely, I thought why did I buy this,  yes it is Couperin, a fav., but I didn't recognise any of the artists & never heard of ASV digital. 

Well it turns out that: "ASV Records was a London-based record label set up by Harley Usill, founder of Argo Records, Decca producer and former Argo general manager, Kevin Daly, and producer Jack Boyce, after Argo's parent company Decca was bought by PolyGram in 1980." https://www.discogs.com/label/61493-ASV 

It turns out to bre a most agreeable  & charming recording, so glad I bought it now.
