Not only do those two symphonies exist, but there are two others as well:
a Symphony in A major and one in F major referred to as "Urbs Roma".
All five can be found on a Brilliant Classics set conducted by Jean
Martinon. This set also has the piano concertos and other pieces.
Six CDs for under $30 - not shabby at all.
