Maybe a little early, but the 2024-5 seasons have been posted, and there's -some- interesting stuff, it seems.

A concert with Andrée's concert overture (and works by Carl Nielsen and others) is  planned for Minneapolis on 10 and 11 January (repeat) 2025, for example.
And one of Robert Fuchs' string trios (E minor, Op.61 No.1) forms part of a program in Vienna on March 23rd.
Dora Pejačević's music features in concerts this year and next. January 29 & 30 2025, in Stockholm, her symphony is being played by the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic.

Detroit Symphony Orchestra, last concert I think, June 5 2025: world premiere by Michael Abels, Tchaikovsky first piano concerto, followed by Leokadiya Kashperova's symphony in B minor, Op.4. (Conducted by Jader Bignamini.) (Also, I see on Facebook that the first studio recording of this work's sessions have just wrapped up in Germany...)

... awhile, but *bump*
This early January 2025 program looks interesting; not entirely within our remit (the last work, Stan Golestan's Arioso, is from 1932) or entirely unsung (Brahms' scherzo from the FAE sonata) but otherwise there are works by Clara Schumann, Joseph Joachim, Hans Sitt, and George Enescu (concert piece for viola and piano) - played at Wigmore Hall, London on 13 January.

On 25 January 2025 a song recital with works by August Bungert, George Enescu and Felix Draeseke will take place in the house of the Kunstverein in Coburg. The concert is part of an exhibition of paintings by Dora Hitz, who was the favourite painter of queen Elizabeth of Romania (alias Carmen Sylva). It is focussed on songs after lyrics by Carmen Sylva.

A concert in Freiburg Germany on Sunday January 19 features orchestral works by Szymanowski and Zemlinsky respectively: the Sym Concertante with Piano (Sym 4) and the Sinfonietta. The concert also has the "Polish" Sym of Tchaikovsky.

Wheesht

The Bregenzer Festspiele on the shores of Lake Constance, although mainly about opera of course, always feature orchestral concerts as well. In 2025 some unsungs will be played:

On 21 July, The Vienna Symphony conducted by Elim Chan will play 'Trois femmes de légende' by Mel Bonis plus works by Debussy and Ravel.

On 17 August, the Vorarlberg Symphony Orchestra conducted by Leo McFall will play 'Fantasie über Motive aus "Hänsel und Gretel" by Oskar Fried, selected lieder by Alma Mahler and Gustav Mahler's 4th Symphony.

For a few (not perhaps many) composers there are worse ways to add to this information, btw, than to check on the website of at least one publisher/distributor of the composer, which sites are sometimes good enough to list past and upcoming performances of such works by the composer as that company/group (e.g. Wise Music Classical, or others) has charge of. :)
