Chopin's Nocturne Op. 32 No. 1

on: October 21, 2006, 01:42:03 PM

Hi. I’m playing Chopin’s Nocturne in B Op. 32 No. 1 and I have three editions of it. Paederewski, Schirmer (Joseffy), and Urtext (Henle). The problem is that both the Schirmer and the Urtext ends in a B major chord but the Paederewski ends in b minor. Which is correct? Or which would you recommend? Please help.

For my taste, I like to end it with a b-minor chord.
