Publisher: | Maurice Schlesinger |
Date: | X 1837 |
Title: | Etudes || 2me Étude |
Dedication: | Madame la Comtesse d'Agoult |
The base text for FE1 was a manuscript (lost), in the most important issues close to GC, yet in many details (e.g., slurs, pedalling, range of dynamic hairpins) clearly independent from it. According to us, it was most probably [A], or its second copy, corrected and completed by Chopin.
FE1 was most probably corrected by Chopin, although in this Etude it is hard to indicate a place with visible traces of corrections. However, one can suspect Chopin interventions in the case of the dynamic hairpins in bars 14-15 and 43-44, or pedalling in bars 17, 36 and 40 (this type of indications, absent in GC and EE could have been however added still in the base text to FE).
FE1 is not free from more or less obvious errors, out of which the most significant are the erroneous (a1) instead of (a1) in bar 44, and devoid of accidentals version of bar 56 (non-corrected Chopin's mistake in [A]).
