To clarify, if it hasn't already been done:
"Moldau" does begin with a harp harmonic along with the flute entry.
HOWEVER:
Solo harp [second harp, in fact], at the start of "Vysherad" [accent
omitted]
and clearly in emulation of Smetana: Solo harp at the start of Dvorak's
Slavonic Rhapsody #3 [A-flat major]
Solo timpani at the start of Dvorak's Slavonic Rhapsody #1 [D major]
Four solo glockenspiel notes at the start of Nielsen's Sixth Symphony.
No doubt more to come!
