All the 1948 GERM shows is

CHRISTMAS EVE
Unspecified Aria  Soprano
Xenia Belmas   12" - Polydor 66716
[Massenet: Elégie]

I'm not surprised - the only complete RK symphony listed in the same edition
is "Antar."

Subject: [ARSCLIST] Rimsky Korsakow: "Christmas Eve" on 78rpm?

Does anyone know if Rimsky-Korsakow's "Christmas Eve" was recorded in
it's entirety on commercial 78s? I am familiar with this release:

Victor 20358: Church scene from "Christmas Eve" / Rimsky-Korsakow.
Performed by Russian Symphonic Choir; Basile Kibalchich, conductor.

Haven't found anything else though.
