composition: WN 55, Waltz in F minor

We encounter two equal versions of the 3rd beat in the L.H.: the a-b-d1 chord in AO and AK or the a-d1 fourth in the remaining sources.

The incidental d1 note in CC - compared to the b note in the remaining sources - may be considered an oversight of the copyist, one of the examples of the Terzverschreibung error.

It is highly likely that the a1 note featured in CC - compared to b1 in the remaining sources - is a mistake of the copyist.

In the F sources (PE, FEF and GEF), on the 1st beat in the R.H. there are two parts with an e1 dotted minim in the bottom voice. We consider this version to be erroneous, since the extension of the e1 note to the 3rd beat interferes harmonically with the e1 note in the L.H. on the 3rd beat. We adopt a minim for the editorial version of these sources.

In AR, there is a poorly visible e1 minim written in pencil in the bottom voice - it may be a lesson comment.
