Re: [F_MINOR] GG Recordings You Like That Everyone Else Hates

[Jon Windust <jon@COGNOLOGY.COM.AU>]

The only recordings that I know of that are close to universally disliked
are the Chopin recordings and some of the Beethoven (Appassionata mainly).

I have the recording of Chopin's Piano Sonata No 3 in B minor and all I can
say is I'm glad this wasn't my introduction to Chopin.  Same with
Appassionata, but the rest of his Beethoven recordings vary between good to
fantastic - especially Sonata No 15, Bagatelle Op 126 No 3 and 6th Symphony.

Why are his Mozart and organ recordings hated?
