| Publisher: | Breitkopf & Härtel |
| Date: | X 1837 |
| Title: | Douze Etudes || 4me Etude |
| Dedication: | Madame la Comtesse d'Agoult |
GE1 is based on FC and it generally carefully recreates the text of the basis. The differences can be explained with inaccuracy or manner of the engraver, e.g.:
-
instead of 
at the beginning of the piece, -
moved
in bar 7, shortened signs in bars 47-48, -
erroneous
in bar 15, - end of the slur in bars 18 and 50, combining the slurs in bars 30-31,
- omitted g note in bar 37,
- c2 instead of e2 in bar 49,
-
sign in bar 58.
The following are certainly editorial revisions:
- wedge added in bar 9;
-
addition of necessary accidentals, e.g., flats in bars 23-26, 31 and 33 or
in bar 46; - addition of cautionary naturals in bars 7 and 15, as well as in 26 and 46;
- moving dynamic hairpins between staves, e.g., in bar 18 and 35-38.
In spite of quite an accurate revision of accidentals, not all inaccuracies were detected in GE1 – two a
in bar 22-23 and e1 in bar 25.
