Pitch

b. 18

composition: WN 55, Waltz in F minor

..

In CX, the order of the last two pitches in the R.H. was reversed by the copyist: the penultimate note is an a2 (without accidental), whereas the last note is an a2 (written with a natural). We consider this version to be erroneous.

..

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.
