b. 225

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

Crotchet d3 in A (→GE)

Quavers in EE & IE

Crotchet b2 in FE

..

In GE we can see traces of removal of the top quaver beam and the stem to f2, which are present in the remaining editions. This means that the mistake consisting in printing them was committed in GE and that the correct text of this edition resulted from proofreading, performed after the GE copies serving as bases were handed over to the other publishers. The FE version most probably resulted from an unfortunate revision of this initial, erroneous version.

b. 226-228

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

3 accents in GC

2 accents in FE

2 accents in GE

2 vertical accents in EE

..

There are differences between the editions, as far as the presence of accents under the bass octaves is concerned:

  • no sign in FE (→EE) in b. 226 is probably an oversight of the engraver, since it seems unlikely that the accent in GC could have been added by Chopin;
  • the missing sign in GE in b. 227 is most probably due to the overlapping marks in GC, i.e.  and an accent;
  • the change of the font of accents in EE is an arbitrary decision typical of this edition.
