Double Bass Proto's Sonata 1963

I have just started playing this as part of a school chamber music project. Does anyone know where I can get a recording of the piece? I also need suggestions as to where the eighths are swung and where they are straight. Right now I am assuming that whenever arco is indicated, the feel is straight, but in Mvt II the feel is Jazz. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Proto Sonata 1963

I haven't heard this particular recording, but its all Proto stuff, including the 1963 piece.

I played the piece in college, and yes, the straight/swing divisions are as you described. Its a cool piece and fun to play.
