EE3 - Revised impression of EE2


Publisher: Wessel & Co.
Date: ca 1858
Title: Douze Etudes || No. 19
Dedication: Mme. la Comtesse d'Agoult

EE3 returned the overlooked in EE2 dedication, placing it over the note text of the 1st page of the Etude in A major, No. 1. In the note text, accidentals were completed, e.g.,  lowering c1 to c1 in bar 39 and a number of additions was introduced, e.g.,  in bar 19,  in bar 23, ten. in bar 43, and particularly the F1 grace note in bar 50, indicating the use of GE1 at the time of introducing the revision.

The copy presented in mUltimate Chopin comes from a later (ca. 1862) impression, endorsed by Wessel's successor, the Ashdown & Parry company. The changes in relation to the original impression of Wessel (whose copy the editors of mUltimate Chopin did not find) most probably concerned only the details of the cover – above all, the company's name was updated (cf. the cover of the first book of the Etudes).
