b. 1

composition: Op. 25 No 7, Etude in C♯ minor

No markings in GC (→GE), FE & EE

Pauses in FES

..

The fermatas added in FES are most probably a lesson note, being an attempt to shape the correct proportions in the rhythmically free performance of the initial phrase of the Etude. The signs, together with the fingering coming from this copy, prove that Chopin did not feel the need to correct the probably erroneous rhythm of the 4th and 5th note.

b. 1

composition: Op. 25 No 7, Etude in C♯ minor

Metronome marking with time signature in GC (→GE)

Metronome marking at start of Etude in FE & EE

..

Placing the metronome indication already at the beginning of the Etude may be a result of the routine interpretation of the engravers of FE and EE who did not see a reason to separate it from the Lento indication. Cf. the Etude in A minor, No. 11, bars 1-5.

No pedalling in GC (→GE), FE & EE

Pedalling written into FES

Our variant suggestion

..

The pedalling of FES is written with a hand of a pupil, yet one can believe that it corresponds to the indications coming from Chopin. Similarly in bar 5.

In GC (→GE1) and EE there is no  returning f at the beginning of the 2nd group of semiquavers of the introduction, which almost certainly corresponds to the notation of [A]. It is a very typical mistake of Chopin – cf., e.g., the Nocturne in Cminor, Op. 27 No. 1, bar 83, or the Impromptu in A major, Op. 29, bar 71. The sign was added in the proofreading of FE, most probably by Chopin, as well as in GE2 (→GE3).

We add a cautionary  before b. A similar addition was already added in GE and EE.
