| Plate number: | (W & Co. No. 3098.) |
| Title: | Twenty four Grand Préludes through all Keys |
| Dedication: | His Friend Camille Pleyel |
First English edition in which the whole Op. 28 was divided into two fascicules bearing consecutive plate numbers (3098 & 3099), and containing respectively 14 and 10 preludes. EE1 is based on FE2, with some arbitrary revisions i.a. the fingering added in this and some other preludes – see Prelude in C no. 1. Chopin had no part in preparing the edition.
In the Prelude in F
, a few mistakes were committed in EE1:
- e-g was printed instead of c-g on the 5th L.H. quaver in b. 22;
- ties to g1 in the 1st half of b. 25 and to b1 in the 2nd half of b. 32 were overlooked.
Furthermore, EE1 added a cautionary 
before g1 in bar 6, at the same time failing to notice that an essential restoring g in this bar was missing.
