Dear Steve,
On Lilian Bryant, see:
http://www.truesoundtransfers.de/Titellisten/TT3111.htm
You can also hear a transfer of one of her recordings made by a friend and
posted to his blog:

n-minutes.html
Others you might want to include:
Friedrich Kark (Odeon, Germany)
Herman Finck (Odeon, Great Britain)
François Ruhlmann (Pathé, France)
I can also highly recommend Philip Carli's superb study of early American
concerted instrumental recordings and the artists (including Sodero) and
executives who produced them:
Synergy in America's Early Talking Machine Industry: Technological,
Commercial, Cultural, and Musical Factors in Band and Orchestral Recordings,
1894-1917 (dissertation), Eastman School of Music, 2003
Best wishes,
Nick

Subject: [ARSCLIST] Conductors on record
I’m assembling a list of conductors who made extensive recordings of
symphonic music (more than 6 sides, say) during the acoustic era and who, if
not employees of the record companies, filled in repertoire gaps as the
company needed. I’m particularly interested in the period before 1914.
The may also have been recording directors but are ignored if they did not
conduct as well (Gaisberg, for instance). . I include later folks with
their earliest dates of recording in this capacity so it can be easily seen
that they do not fit this requirement. Here’s the list so far. Any
additions and corrections are welcomed.
