FE2 - Second French Edition


Publisher: Brandus et Cie.
Date: ca 1854-1858
Plate number: B et Cie. 4743 (1)
Title: 3 Valses || Valse No 1
Dedication: Madame la Comtesse Delphine Potocka

New French edition, repeating the text of FE1, with minor inaccuracies. Among them one can mention missing cautionary flats before g1 in bars 95 and 111 and before e1 in bar 109, as well as minor differences in the slurring. From the editorial point of view, the edition is much less carefully prepared than FE1 – the only rational reason for preparing a new typesetting seems to be high and continuous popularity of the Waltz and wear and tear of printing materials (plates) of the First edition related to this phenomenon.
