BBC Chorus & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra  conducted by  Sir Thomas Beecham          16/44 FLAC  MediaFire Download

Recorded/Broadcast: 24/26 October 1947. From Myto CD 98.H004 (Internet Archive: downloaded for My interest!).
Bass Cut - 12dB/8ve @ 25Hz - Treble cut above 8kHz (Mucho Bass/Upper Treble hash + FM Tuner 19kHz signal). <1.2 dB treble boost @ 6kHz.
Likely the 31st December 1978 BBC Radio 3 TX (which I listened-to: the crash of instruments at the end deleted by Myto). Sounds OK - bought the 1979 RCA (RL42821) which has indifferent transfers of Ariadne/Elektra (ex-EMI).   RCA RL42821 cover + Radio Times 1947 programme>>>

Brigg Fair/Marche Caprice are noisy shellac. Minimally edited those; & trying De-Click killed the clarity (Surprise!)...
