composition: WN 37, Lento con gran espressione

The initial version of A1 was corrected still in this autograph (inaccurately – the penultimate L.H. quaver, b, remained unchanged), whereas the sources based on [A2] already contain the changed version (regardless of the rhythmic changes). The version of EL may be Kolberg's revision after the analogy with b. 22. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Errors resulting from corrections , Errors of A , Corrections of AI , Kolberg's revisions , Revisions in EL |

composition: Op. 22, Andante spianato

This is the first out of two places in which the graphical retouches in the latest impression of GE1, marked in our system as GE1a, contributed to a rhythmic mistake: the quaver flag next to g2 was overlooked. GE2 (→GE3) contains the correct text. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources |

composition: Op. 24 No. 4, Mazurka in B♭ minor

Determining Chopin's intention related to the rhythm on the 3rd beat of the bar seems impossible here. A erroneously has a quaver and two demisemiquavers () in the upper voice. The text of GE1 is also erroneous : . That latter rhythms was corrected both in GE2 (→GE3) and in FE (→EE). The version of GE2, although it is the work of the reviewer, may be considered an alternative to our interpretation of the rhythm of A. The version of FE may result from Chopin's correction, yet this is not certain. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors resulting from corrections , GE revisions , Rhythmic errors , Authentic corrections of FE |

It is difficult to say whether the change of indication introduced by GE (→FE,EE) was a result of the engraver's inattention, revision or even Chopin's proofreading. The change seems too insignificant to bother about, which rather eliminates the last two possibilities. According to us, we can take one other scenario into account, maybe the most likely – the visible traces of corrections in the L.H. part reveal that the parts of both hands were initially misaligned (while planning the L.H., the engraver did not take into consideration the final R.H. quaver). Had leggieriss. been in the area of the correction, the engraver could have then inaccurately reproduced it from memory. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Errors resulting from corrections , GE revisions |
