Seeking Pre-1963 recordings of Romeo and Juliet

Ivan Chandler, a local resident and locally know for his band The Go Go Five, also has a Music Copyright & Licensing Consultancy business. (www.musicalities.co.uk)

One of his clients, The Rosie Kay Dance Company, has rehearsals in place for a contemporary ballet at the Birmingham Hippodrome mid-March. 

Ivan is keen to know if anyone has any pre-1963 recordings of Romeo and Juliet by Berlioz and/or Prokofiev in top condition as such recordings will be out of copyright.

Is there a music club, society or enthusiast in the village who may be able to help?  

If so, he would like to discuss how best to safely make copies, preferably to CD or by way of music files. He is also happy to discuss a fee or donation in an amount that is mutually acceptable. 

Remastered “cleaned up” versions released from 1963 would not help as it would involve negotiations with the relevant record companies which could prove too costly.
