This is not the answer you seek, but I am going to ramble on here
anyway. :-)
I would suggest you subscribe to Schwann Publications which lists all
available CDs. If your REM 311086 is still in print, then Schwann
will list it and you can then order it through vendors that allow you
to order by Schwann numbers.

You'll want to subscribe to Schwann Opus.
I did search some and albeit I found no Mélodies françaises en duo a
la REM 311086, I did find beaucoup de Mélodies françaises recordings.
This one looks like a winner to me:

There are samples to ah...sample, at the Amazon site from this CD. I
am sure this CD will always be a cherished addition to your Classical
collection. <g>
LOL...did I do a good job selling it there? :-)
