I know this isn't the answer the enquirer is looking for but aside from independent acoustic recordings which are being made regularly, (I understand that a rock band or two have made novelty acoustic recordings), the last acoustic recording I'm aware of made by a major company for wide distribution was recorded by EMI in 1997 by Roberto Alagna and Antonio Pappano on a 10 inch 78 with a turn of the 20th century red label showing the Recording Angel trademark and the heading "Gramophone Concert Record".

Acoustic recordings were successfully sold until the early 90's
