Issues : Inaccuracies in GE
b. 6

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor
..
The long accent entered into A was quite accurately reproduced in FE; however, GE and EE considered it vague and reduced to a more typical form, i.e. a diminuendo hairpin in GE and a common short accent in EE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE , EE inaccuracies |

As in the previous four-bar section, in this and the next bars, the marks are placed in the sources inaccurately and inconsistently, hence we homogenise their position in the main text. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , Inaccuracies in A |

In this place, the accent of A is clearly longer than the remaining ones, which was even reproduced by FE. In spite of that, in the main text we suggest a short accent, since we assume that an accidental inaccuracy is more likely. The vertical accent of EE is an arbitrary change, compliant with the manner of that edition – cf. b. 41-43. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in A |

..
FE (→EE) quite accurately reproduced the four undoubtedly long accents in b. 58-59 and 62-63 – the marks intersect the stem of the 1st note in each of these bars, which suggests their accentuating nature and the fact that they are related to the given note. By contrast, GE moved the marks, which makes them concern the 2nd note in the bar. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE |

Due to the high position of the chord, the clear long accent over the L.H. chord is partially on the top stave in A, as a result of which FE (→GE,EE) linked it to the R.H. part. Consequently, the mark was also moved horizontally, hence in FE it looks like a long accent under the d3 quaver. This is how it was understood in GE, in which, however, it was reduced to the size of a common short accent. EE considered the mark a short diminuendo and slightly shifted it to the left. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , Inaccuracies in A |
