EE2 - Corrected reprint of EE1
| Publisher: | Wessel & Co. |
| Date: | ⇒1840 |
| Title: | Douze Etudes || No. 21 |
| Dedication: | None |
Among the changes introduced in EE2 one can mention two revisions performed on the basis of comparison with FE:
-
a
sign in bar 32 was added; - the original version of the 1st half of bar 37 was introduced.
Moreover, the superfluous flats before the last semiquaver in bar 43 were deleted.
The copy presented in mUltimate Chopin comes from a later impression (1843), in which the individual title page was replaced with the cover of the Wessel & Co's Complete Collection of the Compositions of Frederic Chopin series. EE2 was then reprinted with further versions of this collective cover (completed with next Chopin pieces published by Wessel) until ca. 1858, when certain modifications were performed in the note text (see the characteristics of EE3). EE2 also includes copies of this Etude published separately. All versions of EE2 with a collective cover, as well as those published separately, are devoid of the authentic dedication.
