FE2 - Second impression of FE


Publisher: E. Troupenas et Cie
Date: VI 1840
Plate number: T. 891
Title: Sonate || Finale
Dedication: None

Corrected impression of FE1 – see the 1st movement of the Sonata.

The corrections included mistakes and oversights found as a result of comparison with the base text, i.e. [A], e.g., erroneous notes in bar 39 and 46+1 were corrected and slurs in bars 67-74 were added (cf. the characterization of FE1). Chopin's participation in this proofreading seems to be highly unlikely.

The proofreading of FE2 did not remove all mistakes. Copies of this impression were used in two authorial proofreadings, on the basis of which FE3 and EE1 were created.
