Issues : Long accents

The notation of the three subsequent accents is unambiguous in A – they are 3 long accents. In spite of this, GE reproduced them as short accents, whereas in FE (→EE) the third of them was overlooked. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE |

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III
..
The short accent in A was reproduced in GE1 as a long one, since the engravers were probably convinced that they were a diminuendo hairpin. This is how it was interpreted in FE (→EE), extending the mark to the end of the triplet, "for clarity." The form of the sign compliant with A was restored in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

The shape of the accent in A suggests that it is a long accent. It is even more evident in similar b. 470. In FC (→GE) both marks were reproduced as common short accents. Taking into account the fact how carefully Chopin reviewed FC, the absence of corrections in those and similar places may mean that Chopin did not always consider the type of accent used to be a priority. We consider the version with a short accent featured in the principal source to be an acceptable variant. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in FC |

b. 463-465

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I
..
It is uncertain which kind of accents Chopin meant in bars 463 and 465, since two accents in bar 463 are long, whereas the one in bar 465 – short. As there is no reason to differentiate between the indications, we suggest unifying the marks and choose long accents for the main text. (We also suggest adding an accent at the beginning of bar 465.) category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Long accents |

..
In the main text, we suggest adding long accents after analogous bars 460-461 and 456-457 and 464-465. Accents (short) were added already in EE as well as in GE3. category imprint: Editorial revisions issues: Long accents , EE revisions , GE revisions |
