I think I mention Hess 13 briefly in the 'concertos' link but I've never heard it. Is in the DG complete works edition? I have a recording based on B's early violin concerto fragments that lasts 16 minutes (!), nice music but apparently it is a far from scholarly reconstruction. I suspect B completed a number of works in his teens that are now lost.

P.S. The sampler disc I mentioned is a beautifully packaged single disc that includes an item from each volume of the Complete Edition - by its very nature it includes some unusual selections even if it does open with the first movement of the Fifth. It was going for a tenner a few years back but might be deleted now. The No. is: DGG 453 811-2
