Looking for Alfred Cortot's editions of Chopin's Ballades

[lelle]

According to wikipedia:

As one of the most celebrated piano interpreters of Chopin, Debussy and Schumann, Cortot produced editions of all of those composers' music. His editions were notable for their inclusion of meticulous commentary on technical problems and matters of interpretation.

"all of those composers' music" seems to me like it should include Chopin's Ballades, right? Has anybody found these editions online or know where to buy them? I'd very much like to have these editions by Alfred Cortot, mostly Chopin's Ballade no. 2 but all of the Ballades is even better!

Thanks a lot if you can help me with this matter!

That quote means that he edited _some_ of the music by all of those composers. He most certainly didn't edit everything by all of them. I don't actually know if he edited the Ballades: the only thing of his I've seen is the Preludes.

He certainly appears to have "done" rather a lot.
