I collect Wicks and Wilkomirska

At least, I have the Camilla Wicks 1952 Sibelius concerto with Sixten Ehrling on Capitol, as well as the CD reissue circa 2010 from Biddulph, which also incudes another concerto and violin and piano selections. I once read an interview of Wicks in which she says there was a technical problem with the Sibelius recording causing the pitch to wobble. Not really noticeable on the LP, but on the clearer sounding CD, you can hear the pitch problem.

I have Wilkomirska playing Bach, Brahms and Prokofiev sonatas, all excellent in fine LP sound from Connoisseur Society.

I agree re Martzy. Very finicky about her studio recordings, so made very few, and didn't even want budget LP reissues. But their rarity is their most remarkable attribute.
