In Reply to: Number of Edits in modern Classical Recordings - Part Deux posted by Chris from Lafayette on November 22, 2010 at 15:08:43:
A young classical pianist was recording a piece he had not yet learned completely. So he played one page over and over until it sounded OK. Then the next page. And so forth, until he had enough to have them edited together. Playing the tape for a more old-fashioned colleague, he said "Sounds pretty good, doesn't it?" "Yes," the older pianist replied acidly, "Don't you wish you could play like that!"
