b. 313

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

No marks in A

Wedges in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

..

The GE revision (→FE,EE,IE) is justified – all crotchets in this bar (and most probably also in the next one) are certainly to be performed with the same articulation. However, starting from the 2nd half of the bar, Chopin used staccato marks to separate (accent) some R.H. quavers and could have wanted to avoid similar marks in the accompanying part. Due to the above, in the main text we do not include the marks added in the editions.

b. 313-316

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

Staccato dots in A, probable interpretation

Wedges in A (possible interpretation) & IE

Wedges in GE (→FE,EE)

..

The staccato marks with which Chopin provided in A nine quavers constituting – along with the accents and slurs – a phrase separated from the figuration are heterogeneous. Three of them resemble wedges, three – dots, the remaining ones also dots, but carelessly written. As there is no visible reason to differentiate between them, to the main text we adopt dots. In GE (→FE,EE,IE) the marks were reproduced as wedges, perhaps after comparing this fragment with analogous bars 104-107. This version, after including the correction introduced by IE, which was the only one to move the second wedge in bar 313 to its right position, can be considered an equal variant.
