Supposed to be.
And not a Korean product as the CSO concert-opera recordings are included.

Missed one:

[Recording] 1972

Should be Rene Kollo.

CD 16: It's Bear Down, Bears. Didn't know it was a Decca recording. Originally appeared on CD on one of the From the Archives Solti collections, IIRC.

I've got that on a Japanese Decca release coupled with the 1812 and
Nutcracker Suite. It's an excellent march.
