Did see the recordings on the Daedalus catalog, but I haven't heard them.
The Concertino in Classical Style is a delightful and original work and
Lipatti made two recordings of it which can be found on the Archiphon 2-CD
set "Lipatti - Les Inedits" and on a Dante-Lys' Historical Piano Collection
2-CD set (one recording on each).  Both sets are indispensable for Lipatti
collectors (the latter contains his recordings of Enescu's sonatas with the
composer).
