I find that if I fall in love with a poem when I first encounter it, the way I’ve come to know it then tends to be the way I enjoy it most.  For example, I didn’t know “Red Lilies” before Ryan Murphy read it during our interview, but now it’s his reading that I like most.  I enjoy Guest’s interpretation, and completely agree with you, it’s interesting to compare the two, but I’m drawn more to Murphy’s reading then I am to the author’s, I think.  Maybe it’s because Murphy reads the poem with admiration and respect in his voice?  This is what I think I hear, at least.

Her reading sounds a lot drier somehow then Murphy's does.  It's really cool to hear a poem read by the poet who wrote it and then to hear it read by a poet who was inspired by it. tea 'n cookies I followed the link from Ryan Murphy’s Open Loops to PennSound and found the interview Barbara Guest did with Susan Howe.  In the beginning of the interview Barbara Guest reads Red Lilies.
