Issues : Chopin's hesitations
b. 200-202

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete
..
The semiquavers appearing in bars 200 and 202 in AsI are the original version, since dotted rhythms appear both in A and editions, as well as in printed orchestral parts. However, in the orchestra part of AsI, the situation is not so clear. Its notation in bars 200-202 is short – only the part of the first violins and cellos with double basses and "as above" repeated several times, which probably refers to the previous Tutti. In bar 200, the violin part has a dotted rhythm (written incorrectly, perhaps added in a hurry), and the bass part has a semiquaver rhythm. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Chopin's hesitations , Main-line changes |

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

The ending of the Ballade has a few versions proving Chopin's hesitations. We present them below in a chronological order:
As it can be seen, Chopin had two main concepts of the Ballade's endings, "open" and "close." According to us, it is the version No. 1 that presents the first of them in the most thoughtful manner, while in the case of the latter it is the version No. 4. In the main text we give the version No. 1, enriched with variant, characteristic for Chopin grace note added in GC. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Chopin's hesitations , Errors resulting from corrections , Terzverschreibung error , Deletions in A , Authentic corrections of FE , Errors of GC , Authentic corrections in GC |
