Issues : Inaccuracies in FC

The pedalling of FC (→GE) must be inaccurate, as it was the case with bar 7. It is particularly obvious in bar 18, in which such long pedal leads to an awkward step in the next bar: an F-f diminished octave to e. Therefore, in the main text we give the more careful version of FE (→EE). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FC |

We consider the missing mark in FE to be an inaccuracy, perhaps by Chopin, since the same version is to be seen in bar 52. In the main text we suggest a before the 3rd crotchet, after the markings of FE in bars 17-18; this is how the notation of FE was supplemented in EE. The mark in FC is most probably written too late, although in this case the harmonic sequence does not rule out such pedalling. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , No pedal release mark , Inaccuracies in FC |

In the main text we give a slur with a 'tenuto' ending, present in FE (→EE). The shorter slur of FC must be inaccurate here, which is proven by the longer slurs of the copy in all analogous situations (bars 32, 56 and 64). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FC , Tenuto slurs |

The GE version with a three-note chord in the 2nd L.H. crotchet is most probably a mistake by the engraver, who saw a note in the small protrusion of this crotchet's stem. Admittedly, notes on ledger lines can be barely visible (or not at all), but in the case of chords, it concerns the outermost notes – Fontana would mark the vast majority of inner notes in a clear manner. The absence of this c1 is strongly supported by the FE (→EE) version, compliant with the text of all sources in three remaining, analogous bars 20, 52 and 60. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FC |
