Accent in A, interpretation

Sign in GE1

 in GE2 (→GE3GE4)

The not entirely clear mark of A – hairpins (?), accent (?) – was reproduced in FE in a way which also offers different possibilities of interpretation. It was reflected in the differing arrangement of the mark in GE1 and EE. In subsequent GE,s the range of  was graphically adapted to the metric structure. In the main text we give a long accent, as, according to us, it is the most plausible interpretation of the mark of A

b. 37-39

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

No slurs in A (→FEGE)

Slurs in EE

..

In EE whole-bar-long slurs over the part of the L.H. were added in bars 37 and 39. Nothing indicates a possible authenticity of this addition, although leaving the figurations in bars 37-40 without slurs must be considered as an inaccuracy of Chopin's notation.

b. 38

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

Accent in A

Our variant suggestion

..

We leave the decision whether to include the accent written in A, yet omitted in the editions, at the performer's discretion.

b. 38

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

Long accent in A & EE

No mark in FE (→GE)

..

The clear long accent in A was omitted in FE (→GE). It is not certain how it appeared in EE, as guessing such a detail by the reviser seems to be an incredibly lucky coincidence.

b. 39-40

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

Two slurs in A (literal reading)

One slur in A (interpretation) & FE (→GE,EE

..

The slur of A, despite having been written as two lines, was, according to us, accurately interpreted in FE (→GE,EE) as one mark.
