composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

..

In CLI and FEcor there is no  returning e2 on the 8th semiquaver in the bar. The sign was added in a later proofreading of FE (→GE,EE); it is also present in Ap.

CLI has a sustained B as a bass note in these bars. This is the original version, moreover, it was almost certainly written with an error – same as in the adjacent bars, it was the B1-B octave that was supposed to be in this place (cf. e.g. bars 3 or 23-24).

In CLI the lack of hold of the bass octave is most probably the copyist's error.

b. 36

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

..

In CLI there are no naturals returning a1, d2 and f2. The accidentals were also absent in FEcor, in which Chopin, however, added all of them. Eventually, both FE (→GE,EE) and Ap have the correct notation.
