Dear Thomas,
I don’t know which CD reissues you have, apart from Dante LYS149-150, which
you mentioned; the INA Mémoire Vive CD (also available as a 16-bit FLAC
download) has also been mentioned, as has that Hendrik Andriessen cycle in
the QDISC van Beinum box.
I've pulled together a basic check list from Philip Stuart's invaluable
Decca classical discography, available from CHARM
(http://charm.kcl.ac.uk/discography/decca.html), the BnF online catalogue
and a few other sources.
So, starting with Stuart:

Does anyone have, or know of, a detailed discography of IRMA KOLASSI ???
I've recently discovered this wonderful interpreter of French melodies
through some
CD reissues. Would like to know what else she recorded (apparently mostly
for
DECCA UK, and small French labels some reissued by DANTE-LYS).
Thanks!
Best wishes, Thomas.
