Alex Garrobé plays sensitively with a warm tone. His middle movement (Lento) is smooth and expressive, has careful dynamic changes but is not too slow. This version also has the merit of a final movement (Rondo) which is more measured than most, thus correctly observing the given tempo marking (Allegro non troppo).
