b. 32

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

Semiquaver in CLI

Quaver in Ap

Quaver & semiquaver in FE (→GE,EE

..

Chopin wrote the chord as a semiquaver in CLI and as a quaver in Ap. In the published version he opted for a two-part writing, intermediary in a sense.

b. 32

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

No mark in CLIFE (→GE,EE

Wedge in Ap

Wedge in Ap

..

The wedge written in Ap is most probably a part of Chopin's quest for an accurate way of writing down this chord – cf. the adjacent remark

b. 32-34

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

No slurs in CLIFE (→GE,EE

Slurs in Ap, interpretation

..

The slurs in Ap, despite being inaccurate, clearly indicate two one-bar phrases and the beginning of a third one, probably longer. As in almost the entire Etude, Chopin did not use here the slurs in the version prepared for printing.

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

No marking in CLIFE (→GE,EE

in Ap

..

Lack of a new dynamic indication after  written in bar 30 probably means that in the version for printing Chopin envisaged piano dynamics also in this bar.  in this bar seems to be contrary to the final concept of the Etude.

Three accents written in Ap in bar 32 are undoubtedly short, if considering their shape. However, their position gives raise to doubts – the signs certainly do not exclusively refer to the upper voice, therefore, they fall on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th beat of the bar, where they probably concern the entire chords. However, if they concern the chords, such a position suggests their extended function, which corresponds to the definition of long accents (cf. bars 45-46). In the main text we give one  written by Chopin – as in two following bars – in FEcor. In finished FE (→GE) and EE the sign was reproduced inaccurately.
