Which Chopin Etudes should I get?
I own (in no particular order):
Pollini (makes them sound almost too easy, but a bit colorless)
Cziffra (very intense, but not so good in the calmer etudes)
Cortot (very interesting, but way too many technical imperfections) Cherkassky (I haven't listened in a while, but IIRC they aren't so
good)
Perahia (rather bland)
Ashkenazy (both technically and musically agreeable)
Gavrilov (as a critic once wrote, a BMW without a driver)
I still haven't found an utterly satisfying set, however.
Any suggestions?

It took your quote bot more than 16 years to find this idiocy?
You should fire your bot! Or maybe the bot should fire you!
