This is complete nonsense. There are commonly missed notes, fudged intonation, wrong notes, missed entrances, etc etc. on some of the greatest classical recordings in history, especially the live ones. Horowitz, Szigeti, Perlman, Rubenstein, Pavarotti, Furtwangler, Vienna Phil... all the great ones have made "mistakes", ON RECORD. The producers still released all those countless albums because they were of musical substance, and thank god they did! What is perfect, anyway? For me, my Yves Nat complete Beethoven Piano Sonatas box set is about as close to perfect as it gets, even with all those missed notes!
