By chance I have come across an online concert recording of "The Page: A cantata from Mazeppa" by Michael Balfe (1808-1870), performed in 2006 by the University of Manitoba Women's Choir under Henry Engbrecht.  It's with piano accompaniment rather than the presumed orchestra. It's in 10 parts including an overture, and each part is downloadable as an mp3 track.
