As was the case in the R.H. part, in A Chopin omits accidentals next to the quavers ending the four-note L.H. figures if they fall an octave lower than one of the preceding semiquavers. In the discussed bars, such a notation was repeated without changes in FC and FE1. Both necessary naturals – before g in b. 3 and f in b. 4 – were added in EE and GE2, whereas in the remaining editions only one natural was added, in GE1 in b. 3, while in FE2 in b. 4. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions , FE revisions , Inaccuracies in A , Errors repeated in GE , Errors repeated in FE |

The continuous six-bar slur of GE is one of the more glaring examples of the flippant approach of the Breitkopf engravers to the Chopinesque slurring – cf. the characterization of GE1 in the first movement of the Concerto in F Minor, Op. 21. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |

In the first part of both bars, one can see crossings-out in the R.H. part in A. In b. 3 the correction most probably concerned rhythm – it seems that Chopin started writing the first two notes as a dotted quaver and a semiquaver. The crossings-out in the 1st half of b. 4 could have concerned two rests (a crotchet rest and a quaver one). It would mean that the dotted d1 crotchet and the tie that reaches it were added later. Traces of such minor rhythmic changes can also be seen later on, see, e.g. b. 5 and 8. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A , Main-line changes |
