FE3 - Third impression of FE


Publisher: E. Troupenas et Cie
Date: (VI⇒) 1840
Plate number: T. 891
Title: Sonate || Marche
Dedication: None

A subsequent impression, corrected in detail by Chopin. The changes include:

  • removal of funèbre from the title of Marche;
  • addition of Lento in bar 1;
  • addition of a c2 grace note in bar 37 and analog;
  • change of e to g in bar 45;
  • addition of a double grace note in bar 52;
  • addition of cresc. - - in bars 56-60;
  • change of  to  in bar 69.

In addition, a few previously unnoticed mistakes were corrected, e.g., in bar 68.

However, some of the changes introduced in FE3 raise some doubts, as far as their authenticity is concerned, e.g.:

  • "correction" of the trilled note in bar 20 and analog. from G to F,
  • change of B to d in bar 30.

One can assume here misunderstandings at the time of implementing the proofreading or its incomplete implementation.
