As was the case in the R.H. part, in A Chopin omits accidentals next to the quavers ending the four-note L.H. figures if they fall an octave lower than one of the preceding semiquavers. In the discussed bars, such a notation was repeated without changes in FC and FE1. Both necessary naturals – before g in b. 3 and f in b. 4 – were added in EE and GE2, whereas in the remaining editions only one natural was added, in GE1 in b. 3, while in FE2 in b. 4. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions , FE revisions , Inaccuracies in A , Errors repeated in GE , Errors repeated in FE |

The missing pedalling in bars 4 and 28 seems to be an inaccuracy of notation. In the first two bars, Chopin characteristically diversifies the performance – with or without pedal – depending on whether the crotchets creating a spread chord can be held with hand or not. It is possible that he considered the use of the same pedalling two bars further to be obvious (cf. the adjacent note). In the recapitulation (bars 325-336), respective bars appear twice (bars 328 and 336), both times with pedalling.

In bars 4, 12 and 28 there are no slurs in the part of the L.H. in A. These are the same bars in which pedalling signs are missing. While writing the fourth, last bar of the accompaniment based on alternating use of two schemes, Chopin could have already been thinking about the next bar, structured differently. In GE1 (→FE) slurs were added in bars 12 and 28, in both cases repeating a slur used two bars earlier (in particular in bar 12 the erroneous slur from bar 10 was repeated). According to us, it indicates an action of the reviser. In EE and GE2 a slur was added also in bar 4, whereas in GE2 the slur in bar 12 was corrected. We give the last version in the main text, since the absence of slurs in the discussed bars must be an inaccuracy of notation. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in A |
