Ormandy recorded all nine symphonies in the early 'sixties for (then)
Columbia Records.  Nos.  3-6 are on a Sony Essential Classics 2CD set and
nos.  8-9 are on their own single CD also on Essential Classics.  Sorry,
I'm at work and can't supply catalog numbers.  They should be readily
available just about anywhere.
