Ohlsson's Etudes
on: November 04, 2005, 01:08:47 AM
Why does Garrick Ohlsson's CD recording of the Chopin Etudes refer to Op. 25 as Op. 42?  Op. 42 is the Grand valse in A flat major.  What were they thinking?

It is a misprint. Scriabin wrote Eight Etudes op.42, are these those?  ;D

Because he's so good that he can change opus numbers
