Dear Mr. Galo,
According to Mike Gray's "A Classical Discography" site, Egon Petri's Westminster remake of the Beethoven "Hammerklavier" Sonata was recorded in June, 1956 possibly with additional sessions in 1957. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
Sincerely,
Steven Reveyoso

What I'm looking for is the exact recording date and venue, which may be documented in the booklet that came with this set. The CHARM web site has nothing specific, and I can't find anything else on the internet.
