b. 265

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete
..
The hairpin is written in A between the staves and begins after the 1st R.H. chord (in Af the bottom arm starts as early as at the beginning of the bar). In GE (→FE,EE) the mark was moved to over the R.H. part, which, in this case, does not significantly influence its meaning. The change was most probably forced by lack of space between the staves; it cannot come from Chopin. The slight change of range in GE1 (→GE2) – the beginning of the mark was moved slightly to the right – was intensified by all subsequent editions, while FESB additionally reversed the direction of the mark, which is a frequent mistake in the first editions of Chopin's pieces. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , Placement of markings , Scope of dynamic hairpins , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Sign reversal |

The differences in the range of the hairpin resulted from routine revisions, adjusting the marks to rhythmic structures or beams – in GE1 (→GE2,EE,FE) on the left-hand side, while in FESB also on the right-hand side. The absence of the mark in GE3 is an oversight by the engraver. In the main text we reproduce the mark of A. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Scope of dynamic hairpins , Errors in GE , GE revisions , FE revisions |

In the main text we reproduce the notation of A, emphasising, as it seems, the syncopated quavers in the top voice. The shifted marks in the editions are gathered around the beginnings of the even triplets, which could not have been Chopin's intention – marks of such range cannot concern the top voice, next to which they were written. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Scope of dynamic hairpins |

The missing dynamic hairpins under the L.H. part are almost certainly a mistake by the engraver of GE1. It is difficult to determine the exact range of the marks in A, since their arms are of different length. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Scope of dynamic hairpins , Errors in GE , Inaccuracies in A |

AsI includes different dynamic indications here, describing an earlier concept, changed in the stage of writing A. We move the mark in bar 364 between the staves, since it certainly concerns both parts and was written over the top stave due to lack of space between the staves. In GE1 the hairpin was slightly widened or moved, generally adjusting it to individual beats. This notation was repeated in the remaining editions, in the case of FE with a mistake, while in the case of GE3 with a further shift. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors in FE , Scope of dynamic hairpins , GE revisions |
