  b. 161

in A (→FEEE)

No indication in GE

Our variant suggestion

The più mosso indication written in A (→FEEE) suggests that this time the figurative section is to be played faster than the last time (for the first time). This possibility cannot be excluded, yet it seems to be more natural that the section, repeated three times without any changes to the text, is to be played in a generally identical tempo. Since in A the second half of the Waltz (from bar 97) is written in an abbreviated manner, it cannot be excluded that Chopin mechanically repeated in bar 161 the indication from bar 97 (which was necessary there after più lento in bar 65). In this case, the absence of the indication in GE could have been a result of Chopin's proofreading. Therefore, in bar 161 we give più mosso in brackets.
