b. 497

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

In GC and FE1 there is no  lowering gto g2. This obvious mistake was corrected in GE and FE2. The accidental present in EE seems to be an editorial revision.

b. 509-510

GC (→GE)

Our variant suggestion

..

There are no grounds to question the authenticity of pedal releasing marks in FE (in b. 509), or in GC (→GE) in b. 510. However, the EE pedalling - a separate pedal mark per one chord in b. 510 - seems substantively very doubtful, as in most cases Chopin marked the necessity of adding the sound of notes played in different time. We believe the basis for EE may have had two  marks by mistake and the engraver or editor while trying to make sense out of this notation, added . In the main text we present our variant proposal that includes two undoubtedly authentic versions of pedalling.

Tied chords in EE

Repeated chords in GC (→GE) & FE

..

In EE all the chords notes are tied in bars 519-521 and 527-529, however in b. 521 there is no f note. This must have resulted form misinterpretation of Chopin's notation and supplementing of allegedly missing ties by the editor. In the main text we present the consistent version of GC (→GE) and FE.

No slur in EE, GC & FE

Slur ending in GE

..

Only in GE the slur beginning in b. 526 extends over until here. In GC and EE the slurs end in b. 528, in FE there is no sign at all.

8 ties in EE

4 ties in GC (→GE) & FE

..

In EE all 8 notes of the chord are tied over the bar line of the previous bar. This must be erroneous revision.
