Bruch was the name that made me add less sung as a category in my question... and I briefly toyed with not sung enough.

He sort of isn't, now.
Between 1901 and 1908 the Gewandhausorchester performed his music only 7 times (Romanze Op.42, violin concerto no.1 three times (1901, 1905, 1907), Kol Nidrei twice (1902, 1908), Violin concerto no.2.)
(During that period, a now even less obscure composer, Antonio Vivaldi, shows up not at all in their archives, for several reasons I can think of. Actually, it seems the first Leipzig GO performance of his music in the 20th century was as early as 1910, to my surprise. Apologies for the digression.)
