b. 506-508

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

No  lowering g3 & g2 to g3 & g2 in EE, GC & FE 

Naturals in GE
..

The version with g3 (in b. 506) and g2 (in b. 508) would be possible but for a broader harmonic context, and especially the E minor key in force here since b. 495. Therefore, there is no doubt that Chopin omitted naturals and the version of GE is correct.

Pedalling in GC (→GE)

FE
..

In EE there is no  mark in b. 521, while the mark is present below the pauuse on the second beat of the bar in b. 525, which is na obvious error. GC (→GE) and FE differ in the placement of  in b. 525. For the main text we adopt the FE mark, consistent with many corresponding bars.

b. 532-539

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

In the LH part in GC the lack base clefs in bars 533 and 539. These obvious errors were corrected in GE. In EE one of the clefs was erroneously placed at the end of b. 532 instead of b. 533. In FE there is no clef nevessary for bars 533, 537 and 539.
