This is sad news indeed.  I have recently taken a shine to the Casadesus
Recordings and have been seeking them out on vinyl due to the deplorable
lack of representation on cd of both Mssr and Mme.  Casadesus' playing.
Sony should be ashamed for witholding this wonderful legacy.  What clean
and elegant playing from both of them!
