Issues : Long accents

In the main text we give long accents over the d1 minims, although the notation of the sources does not suggest it. According to us, it is highly likely that the signs of the autograph were misinterpreted both by the copyist and the engravers:
Similarly in bars 24 and 114-121. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Editorial revisions issues: Long accents |

In the main text we give the notation modelled on FE as most probably the latest and most consistent – the accents, minims and pedalling specify the way of performance accordingly. The remaining sources prove that Chopin tried to mark the possibility of separating the tenor voice in different ways. In the version of EE it is the original form of the 1st chord (with a), mistake in pedalling and placing accents on the wrong side that draw the attention. The notation of FC is inconsistent (an accent over f1, separate stem for e1) and incomplete (no pedalling). In GE it was distorted even more – e1 is not separated, whereas GE1 overlooked the accent. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE , Errors in EE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |

The long accent in bar 130 must have been included in [A], whereas the remaining were added by Chopin in FC and probably in the base text to EE. The added signs have a form of long accents and this is how they were recreated in EE and GE1. In later GE, they were changed to common, short accents. The signs in FC are placed more or less between the staves and they probably concern both hands. In FE, EE and GE1 they were placed under the R.H., whereas in GE2 (→GE3), another set of accents for the L.H. was added. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FC |
