b. 6

composition: Op. 25 No 1, Etude in A♭ major

No mark in CDP & EE

Short accent in AI & GE

Long accent in A

 in FE

..

Neither in AI nor in A is the type of accent Chopin thought of here clear. The sign is visibly shorter in AI than in A, therefore, we interpret it as a short and long accent, respectively. This is how we give it in the main text. According to us, it is highly likely that a long accent was written also in the base text to FE, reproduced inaccurately as .

b. 6

composition: Op. 25 No 1, Etude in A♭ major

..

In all manuscripts, FE and EE1 (→EE2) have no flats returning e2 and e1. This inaccuracy, so characteristic for Chopin, was corrected only in GE and EE3.

b. 6-8

composition: Op. 25 No 2, Etude in F minor

Slurs in AT

Divided slur in AW

Continuous slur in CDP, GC (→GE), FE & EE

..

In the version prepared for print, Chopin abandoned in this fragment any attempts to suggest any phrase divisions, both structural (AT) and expressive (AW). The written in AW phrase breath effect in the 2nd half of bar 7 (and 26) was used – in the form underlined with articulation – only on the occasion of the last appearance of this fragment (bar 57).

b. 6-8

composition: Op. 25 No 4, Etude in A minor

No signs in A (→FE)

  in FC & EE

  in GE

..

In the main text we give a pair of   hairpins added most probably by Chopin in FC and base text to EE. The shift of the  sign in GE was probably a result of division of the score into great staves – bar 7 falls at the end of the line.
