Through the courtesy of the UK Sibelius Society, I am able to share some rarities.


Sibelius' Violin Concerto (Janine Andrade, violin), Symphony No. 7 & excerpts from "Pelleas et Melisande". The orchestra is the Finnish Radio Symphony, conducted by Nils-Erik Fougstedt. Transfers by Mark Obert-Thorn, from discs in the collection of Edward Clark, of the UK Sibelius Society.

Looking forward to this. I wonder what decade they're from ...

A little research shows that Nils-Eric Fougstedt died in 1961.

....... Unhappily, the MF link doesn't work.
