GE3 - Corrected impression of GE2
Publisher: | Breitkopf & Härtel |
Date: | ca 1866 |
Plate number: | 5709 |
Title: | Grande polonaise brillante précédée d'un Andante spianato |
Dedication: | Madame la Baronne d'Est |
The copy presented in mUltimate Chopin is lacking in the last sheet, most probably comprising a blank page and an advertising page, including a list of a separate group of B&H publications. Dating and other general pieces of information – see the characterisation of GE3 in the Andante spianato.
GE3 added a few necessary accidentals – raising g
2 to g2 in b. 45 and 189 (in the latter it was also the erroneous
before the preceding note that was corrected),
lowering b to b
in b. 264. Above all, however, several dozen cautionary accidentals were added, e.g. in b. 19 (
of a
2), 26 (
of b
and
of f3), 157 (
of c2 and c4), 180 (
of e
1), 191 (
of b
1), 230 and 233 (
of e
2, in b. 233 by mistake instead of b. 234).
Certain mistakes were still left uncorrected, e.g. missing accidentals in b. 132 or Terzverschreibung in b. 192.
