composition: Op. 64 No 2, Waltz in C♯ minor

The dedication, both in A and in FE (→EEW1→EEW2), determines the same person – baroness Charlotte de Rothschild, Nathaniel's wife. In the main text, we give an expression used in FE, being the official way of presenting a married woman in France. It is unclear why the dedication was left out in GE and EEC – in spite of a collective cover for three (in EEC two) Waltzes, it could have been placed, e.g., on the first page of the note text. In the case of GE, the reason could have been a possible absence of cover in the proof copy of FE, being the basis for GE, since the dedication was placed in FE only on the cover. As does not include either the title or the dedication. The dedication is also absent in AI, although it is known that the autograph was offered to baroness de Rothschild. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions , Dedications , GE revisions |
