Slightly off topic from your request, but approaching this music the way the pros approach audition excerpts from this piece is invaluable.
edit: same player in context with orchestra
GREAT study piece. Oh, brings back memories. Can’t remember which performance/recordings I listened to most but there has to be several recorded since I studied it.
This performance is my favorite:
I have the Pierre Boulez Recording the with New York Phil and I’ve yet to hear a better interpretation.
I’ve heard a Lot Rory. 50 different versions at least. It’s preference really. Boulez gets the brass to be very pronounced in that first section where most other recordings have much tamer renderings. As a brass player I like that the trumpets are more pronounced.That kind of begs the question of what you've heard
By the way, François-Xavier Roth, in the video three posts up, talks about working with Boulez on a performance of Daphnis and Chloë.

Sounds like there may be some differences between the Dover score and what one hears in recordings, certainly in the Harmonia Mundi recording.
Do you know if there is a list of errata? I cannot find one.
