Text Compare Notes Sources Description

Issues : Long accents

b. 72

composition: Op. 64 No 3, Waltz in A♭ major

Long accent in As (→A)

 in FE (→GE,EE)
..

The unequivocal long accent, introduced in A over the g1 minim, was placed in FE (→GE,EE) between the staves as a  hairpin. It is most probably an arbitrary decision of the engraver of FE.

composition: Op. 64 No 3, Waltz in A♭ major

 below minim in A

 between staves in FE (→EE)

No sign in GE
..

In the editions the  sign, in A placed under the c minim (it is generally a "very long" accent), was moved between the staves, which hinders its correct interpretation. GE overlooked the sign.
