composition: Op. 10 No 3, Etude in E major
..
The accent in the 1st half of the bar may be interpreted as long or short in A. A clearly longer sign is written also in AI. On the other hand, a comparison with analogous accents in the 2nd half of this bar and in bars 1-2 suggests the second possibility and this is how the sign was understood in FE (→GE,EE). According to us, the context, particularly the harmonic one, can justify distinguishing this note with a longer accent. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness issues: Long accents |

The long accent over the d1-b1 sixth in bar 8 and the hairpins in bar 9 were added by Chopin in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). The composer replaced with them the previous sign in bar 8, written in A. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Authentic corrections of FE |

..
According to us, the accent written in A is to be interpreted as long. The sign in FE, despite that it recreates the notation of A quite accurately, due to the more constricted notation, is rather a short accent and this is how it was understood in GE and EE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents |

It is the longest out of three evident long accents written in A in bars 21, 25 and 27. In FE (→GE1,EE) it was reproduced as three-semiquaver-long hairpins. In subsequent GE, the sign was extended in order to cover the entire length of the semiquaver beam (such kind of adjustments of slurs and hairpins to regular rhythmic groups was a characteristic manner of German engravers, both Kistner and Breitkopf and Härtel). Cf. bar 27. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents |
