I found a wrong note by Michelangeli!
on: March 17, 2008, 12:19:04 AM
Hehe the old legend that the master never did any wrong notes has now been proved wrong!

At 4:45 he missed a left-hand chord. Haha not like I cared or anything, I couldn't care less, but there was this old saying that we never heard Michelangeli do even ONE wrong note. Simply wanted to prove he is human.

Didn't notice but i don't know the piece as well as you. I did enjoy other pieces by Michalangeli close to that link as well. thanks!

Where is the mistake in the Chopin Scherzo?

I found a wrong note in a Glenn Gould Schoenberg recording.  Let me relisten and I will tell you exactly where it is.

I have a recording somewhere where Josef Hoffmann gets a bunch of notes wrong. And he wasn't improvising either...
