Issues : Inaccuracies in JC
b. 32

composition: WN 37, Lento con gran espressione

When interpreted literally, the rhythm written down in CJ suggests a very unnatural combination of four crotchets in the R.H. and five in the L.H. Taking into account the inaccurate alignment between the L.H. and the R.H. (cf., e.g. 2 previous bars), in the 2nd half of the bar we get two crotchets in the R.H. against three in the L.H. While such polymeter is present in an earlier version of A1 (in the previous bars), in [A2] Chopin replaced it with simpler, regular rhythmic divisions. Such a change in the opposite direction, not marked in any way, is inconceivable here, hence we consider this notation to be Ludwika's mistake. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors of JC , Inaccuracies in JC |

These 9 bars were written by Chopin on the bottom stave only both in A1 and [A2] (→CJ); CB also applied such notation. At the same time, all sources – including CK and EL, in which a few/several dozen notes and rests were added on the top stave – convey the general idea of division into hands expressed through the direction of the stems and arrangement of the rests. In turn, as far as the details are concerned, there are many differences between them, which, however, are of no practical meaning; some of them are simply mistakes or simplifications related to the notation of repeated figures. Due to this reason, we do not discuss them in detail, leaving a possible analysis to the reader. The version suggested in the main text is based on CJ; we only complement the notation of b. 37-38, in which some of the L.H. rests were overlooked. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in JC , Kolberg's revisions |

The notation of JC is inaccurate: lack of extension of the rhythmic value of the f quaver despite the tie holding it until the next bar. In EF, the notation was improved, yet it is only the notation of PE, based on the later autograph, that describes precisely the performance of this place intended by Chopin. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in JC |
