I'm searching for a CD set with Handel's keyboard suites #1-16, preferrably played on the piano. I have Anthony Newman's #1-8 on harpsichord, which is nice, and Perahia's Handel/Scarlatti CD, which contains only three. When it comes to Handel keyboard music, I'm not at all familiar with the more popular interpreters. Also, I'd like to find a recording of his 2nd Chaconne in G. Thanks in advance for any help.

Richter and someone else (Gavrilov?) on 2 EMI doubleffortes (4 discs all together), played on piano. Don't know about the Chaconne in G.

there are two EMI twofers with Richter/Gavrilov, Piano. The first contains the 8 famous ones, the second one is numbered 9-16, but I am not sure if this is a canonical numbering, for example the B flat major piece which served as the theme for Brahms variations is not there. But they are usually midprice to budget price and very good, if you want piano, I don't know about good harpsichord recordings.

Rchter/Gavrilov set on EMI should be a good start.
