at least something (maybe all there is) of the early two symphonies (the 1899, 1908 ones), and the overture in E-flat, also on a Marco Polo disc. The Orfeo recording of the 3rd symphony has less music than the Marco Polo recording since the finale is, I believe, omitted from the former (there's a story there.)
I think there may be yet other recordings on CD of the symphonic concerto (hrm. Well- the 1996 one from LYS may not be available... it postdates the Marco Polo 1991 one but that one seems to be available at least as a download - probably the same with a 1993 Biddulph recording of the concerto with Fischer at the piano...)

The 1951 studio recording of Symphony n.2 by the composer-conductor with the BPO exists on DG. Anothere fairly recent recording exists on Arte Nova (G.A.Albrecht cond.).

May I add that the Piano Concerto was also released on Tahra with Erik Then-Bergh as the soloist and Kubelik conducting the BRSO and that all 3 symphonies were issued on Arte Nova with George Alexander Albrecht conducting Staatskapelle Weimar?

All three symphonies exist on Arte Nova cds, Staatskapelle Weimar/George Alexander Albrecht
