Issues : Deletions in A
b. 235

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

The deletion visible in A next to the c-c1 octave most probably covers the initial version of this octave. According to us, it could have been d-d1. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A |

In A, one can see two more deleted notes between the c3 and b2 quavers; in addition, the not entirely removed stem of the former was left untouched. Consequently, it probably caused the mistake of FE, in which one can see traces of removal of a redundant note, most probably c3, placed between d3 and c3. It is uncertain what the aim of the corrections of A was. Below we present a hypothetical reconstruction of a respective fragment with the removed notes having been revealed:

We keep the notation of A (→FE), where the accidentals in b. 251 for the R.H. part are then not repeated before the same L.H. notes. An analogous situation is to be found in b. 255. In A one can even see that Chopin deleted all accidentals that had been written in those places – four in b. 251 and the category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: EE revisions , GE revisions , Deletions in A |

The deletions visible in A reveal that Chopin considered the dynamic markings over the R.H. part not suggestive enough and moved them lower, between the parts of both hands. None of the sources reproduced this notation accurately – in FE (→GE) the marks were placed too low, before the L.H. part, while GE overlooked category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in GE , Deletions in A |
