The notation of the R.H. accents in b. 68 and 76 was specified by Chopin in FC:
- in A there is no accent in b. 68, while the mark in b. 76 is placed under the stave and seems to concern the minim of the bottom voice (like in b. 77).
- in FC Chopin added an accent under the minim of the top voice in both places (in b. 76 he also deleted the mark under c2, copied by Fontana). For the purpose of clarity, we place the accents over the relevant minims of the top voice.
All accents written by Chopin are long accents, which was reproduced only in FE and GE1. The further sources – EE and GE2 (→GE3) give short accents. It was also the position of the accents that was not always reproduced in accordance with the Stichvorlagen – in GE1 the accents were placed under the stave; it was only in GE2 (→GE3) that Chopin's intention was guessed.
