Issues : EE inaccuracies

b. 1-6

composition: Op. 25 No 8, Etude in D♭ major

..

Chopin's intention of providing all bass notes with staccato dots remains beyond any doubt, despite the fact that in A the last dot is missing (or it is written in an unclear manner). It is FE and GE2 (→GE3) that include the totally correct notation in this respect. In the remaining editions, the notation is more or less inaccurate – GE completely omits the dots in these bars, while EE puts them only next to a few notes, rather accidentally (one dot was omitted in each of the following bars: 1-3 and 5-6).

Long accent in A (→GE1)

Short accent in EE & GE2 (→GE3)

No mark in FE

The long accent in A (→GE1) was added in GE2 (→GE3), as well as in EE, as short. FE omitted the sign, which may be an inaccuracy resulting from introducing changes in print (similarly as in the case of the staccato dot – see the adjacent note).

In EE1 there is no  before g2, which in this context has to be considered as a mistake (admittedly an oversight).
