I'm not sure whether "DeCastro" is indicative of aristocracy or not. The original Castros, I believe were from Spain. It is my understanding that several left Spain for various parts of the world during the period of the inquisition. The name has changed somewhat, but seems to remain both Castro and Decastro. Whether or not you are related to fidel, I don't know, could be. Some of the Castros went to Mexico, some to Cuba, some as far as present day Phillipines, and Belgium.
I don't know who might have been a pianist for the Queen, which queen, when?
It is interesting to note that some of the DeCastros changed their names to Castro when they left Spain. Why? Because some of those who left were Sephardic Jews.
Sorry couldn't be more help
