[E]ditions of nearly all of Chopin's mature works were issued in three different countries. Despite the best efforts of all concerned, these publications were not in fact simultaneous--some of the editions were separated in time by a year or more--, yet only a few pirated editions appeared. The first of Chopin's works to be published "simultaneously" in France, Germany, and England were the Nocturnes, op. 9, which appeared over the period from December 1832 to June 1833. Maurice Schlesinger and Friedrich Kistner, the French and German publishers, cited each other's editions on their title pages, but not that of Christian Wessel, the English publisher. Wessel, in turn, almost never acknowledged his Continental counterparts on the title pages of his editions.
