b. 8

composition: Op. 10 No 9, Etude in F minor

in A

in FE (→GE,EE)

..

A includes the indication rittenuto (sic!). In the main text we give ritard., which could be a result of Chopin's proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). In AI there are no indications in bars 8-9.

b. 8

composition: Op. 10 No 9, Etude in F minor

Long accent in AI

Short accent in A (→FEGE,EE)

..

From the graphic point of view, it is hard to consider the accent in A as long, however, it cannot be excluded that in this place the composer's intention is rendered better by the sign of AI.

b. 9-15

composition: Op. 10 No 9, Etude in F minor

..

In AI bar 8 is marked as 1ma [volta], after which bar 16 follows, marked as 2[da volta]. However, after bar 8, instead of the expected repeat sign, there is a double bar line. In spite of this inaccuracy, there is no doubt that bars 9-15 are meant to be repetition of bars 1-7. A double bar line appears also after bar 16.

Slurs for 5 & half bars in AI

No slurs in A (→FEGE,EE3)

Slurs in 8 bars in EE4

..

The slurs in these bars – despite being justified from the point of view of the performance – do not appear in the sources controlled by Chopin in terms of publication (A, FE). We do not include them in the main text.
