You can find Lipatti discographies in the book, "Lipatti" by Tanansescu
and Bargauanu and in the latest issue of International Piano Quarterly (a
Gramophone publication). As far as I know, he made two recordings of the
Partita: the Columbia studio recording and the live performance from his
last recital in Besancon (sorry for the lack of cedille). Both of these
are available on EMI CDs.
I would also strongly recommend the APR release of Lipatti's 1947
recordings for Columbia (including a previously unissued recording of
Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring). The APR disc also contains the
best-sounding transfers of Chopin's 3rd sonata and the Grieg Piano
Concerto.
