In A (→FE) the R.H. slurring is clearly incomplete in these bars – there is no reason for the 2nd figure in b. 37 and the first figures in b. 38-39, over which there are no slurs, to be performed differently from the rest. Therefore, in the main text we supplement the slurs after the first three figures in this four-bar section (in b. 36-37). The slurs were also added by GE and EE. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in A |

The change of accents to vertical is a frequent arbitrary decision of EE. It is noteworthy that in bar 40 the authentic short accents were preserved, which is an example of the inconsistence of the reviser (engraver?) of EE. See also the notes on accents in b. 42 and 43. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |

As in the previous bars, FE (→GE) erroneously reproduced the majority of the L.H. slurs – instead of from the 2nd or the 5th crotchet in the bar, they begin earlier, from the 1st or the 4th crotchet. It was only the second slur in b. 41 that was reproduced in accordance with A. EE homogenised the slurs by making the only authentic slur resemble the remaining ones. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE |

The missing accent in A (→FE) is probably Chopin's oversight, perhaps provoked by lack of space for the mark – in this (and the next) figure, Chopin still wrote R.H. stems and beams under the notes, which makes the insertion of an accent between the staves almost impossible in the discussed place. The accent was added by GE and EE (a vertical accent in the latter, as in the remaining figures – cf. b. 41-43). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |
