As always, please try to keep it Gould-related.

In Wondrous Strange, I recall Bazzana saying that Scriabian's sonata #1
(opus #1?  Something #1) was considered one of the hardest piano pieces
out there.  And noted that Gould had several splices in his recording,
implying that they there were there because of mistakes and not artistic
choices, though he didn't explain why he came to that conclusion.

Cheers,
k
