chronological order mildly confusing toward the end, tho'. (because of the Ov. Sinfonica/Symphonic Overture?)
If the * means has been broadcast or something, the harp concerto was performed in 1958 (Italian Radio Premiere) and rebroadcast May 9 2010.
Likewise in these broadcasts if I am reading right were the cello concerto, piano concerto (no.2?) (premiere of 1960), viola concerto, Metamorfosi (1964 premiere), sinfonia breve, and other works (the Mario Rossi recording of sym.6 is identified as the premiere). Hopefully these will be rebroadcast or recorded and released.

Thank you, Eric, for pointing that my chronology had got awry   Now corrected

The * as always refers to a work which is available for download on this forum
