As an ex-NZer I'm biased but there are some terrific recordings by the
NZSO on Koch International.  I'd pick out the Theme and Variations CD
along with the surprisingly good Symphony CD. The symphony is a world
premier recording made 60 years after Rozsa wrote it aged 23 (!).  Lush,
romantic and hummable tunes that clearly prefigure Hollywood.
