(complete new edition)
Gremlins can lurk in the most carefully proofed volumes, and new sources sometimes turn up after publication. This list may therefore be useful for users of piano volumes in the Durand-Costallat Œuvres Complètes:
Series 1 vol. 1. Œuvres de jeunesse (early piano works up to 1892):
A computer glitch resulted in some accents and articulation marks not being printed. (Ouch, but it's still the more accurate edition available, the corrections outnumbering the missing symbols.) Paperback offprints of most of the volume's contents have corrected this. Durand issued an Errata leaflet (plate number D.&F.15405), additional copies available free (hard copy or PDF, French and English) to any owners of the hardback volume who request it from Editions Durand in Paris. If any problem, in extremis Roy Howat can email the PDF. And the last RH note of Nocturne, as many will guess, should be in bass clef.
Series 1 vol. 2 (Images of 1894, Pour le piano & Children's corner):
p. 6 m. 10, RH C# should be tied across beats 2-3, and last RH note is D(#) not F(#)
p. 25 m. 29, RH note 6 read A not B
p. 37 m. 64, 3rd last RH chord, lowest note read C(#) not B
p. 66 m. 48, RH should read as in bar 47 (the chords on the offbeats)
p. 82 m. 103, in last LH chord read G-flat in place of A-flat (like m. 23)
Series 1 vol. 3 (Estampes; D'un cahier d'esquisses; Masques; L'isle joyeuse; Images series 1 & 2)
p. 54 m. 3, delete the RH pause
p. 75 m. 54, the first RH upbeat stem should have 3 not 2 flags (32nd-note)
p. 91 m. 111 ('Mouvement'), last LH note should be F# (like surrounding bars)
Series 1 vol. 5 (Preludes, Books 1 & 2)
p. 9 m. 11, RH chords 3 & 7should read as in m. 9 (with D-flat not C)
p. 43 m. 19, RH chord 3, add a flat to the E
p. 45 m. 44, last RH chord should be the same as in surrounding bars
p. 106 m. 46, 3rd last RH semi/16th, read E (doubling the upper voice) not D
Series 1 vol. 6 (Etudes; courtesy of Claude Helffer)
p. 50 m. 46, RH note 3 read F-natural
p. 79 m. 56, LH can be read editorially as in m. 52 (cf. reference in the critical notes)
The new Durand budget paperback offprints from the Œuvres complètes correct nearly all of these and are updated if need be.
