Americans call a section from Beethoven's last piano sonata the "boogie woogie variation" on account of it sounding vaguely like jazz. Here's Hungarian pianist Andras Schiff objecting to that labeling. Lots of butthurt in the comments.

My brother said -- "Andres Schiff is being racist. He is saying: How dare high European art be compared to Negro music!"
