Slur in Atut, contextual interpretation

Slur in FE (→EE)

Slur in GE

..

The range of the slur of Atut is unquestionable, although it reaches neither the first nor the last note of the phrase. However, in FE, the ending of the slur was reproduced incorrectly; in GE, attempts were taken to correct it.

In Atut and GE3, the chords in the L.H. are written in an abbreviated manner in these bars, as minims with quaver tremolos (a similar situation in bars 28-35). This notation provoked a misunderstanding concerning the articulation of these chords – see the note in the previous bar.

b. 28-38

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

..

In bars 28-35 and 37-38, Chopin used in Atut an abbreviated notation of the repeated quavers. In FE (→EE,GE1GE2), the abbreviations were explained, like in our system. In bars 28-35, identical abbreviations were re-introduced in GE3. According to us, this compliance is accidental, which is supported by the fact that the notation in bars 37-38 differs – Chopin would use abbreviations to minimise writing, whereas the primary aim of the engraver of GE3 was to save space.

Wedge in Atut (→FEEE)

Dot in GE

..

The change of the staccato mark from a wedge to a dot is a frequent revision (inaccuracy?) of GE in this Concerto and other works published by Kistner – cf. e.g. bar 92.

..

In FE, the dots prolonging the F-f crotchet were overlooked. The mistake was corrected in GE and EE.
