There is a recording, probably re-relaesed on Sony Essential Classics, of
George Szell conducting the Polovetsian Dances with the Cleveland Orchestra.
Robert Marcellus's playing is (as usual) wonderful. One interesting fact about
that recording is that at the time it was made, Marcellus was in a
short phase of his career during which he experimented with crystal
mouthpieces.

I don't know for a fact that this recording was re-released, but is well worth
searching for, even if it wasn't.

Good luck.
