URTEXT EDITION 
This "urtext" or "scholarly" (scientific) edition is in the public domain because it was published at least 25 years ago for most of the EU (20 years ago in Italy, 30 years ago in Poland) over 25 years ago for the former USSR. Such editions are also public domain in Canada because they fail to meet the minimum 'threshold of originality' to qualify for copyright as an 'adaptation'. They may not be public domain elsewhere.

Swedish radio mp3. This may be the performance the first movement of which, from a piano roll, was released on Telefunken around 1912. It's been reissued many times on LP and CD. Unusual performance by modern-day standards, maybe, but often in very good, compelling ways...
