In A the L.H. octaves are written in an abridged manner with the use of the con 8va indication. The editions explained the abbreviation. The absence of the indication in AsI may be an earlier version or a simplified notation of the obvious. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Bass register changes , Abbreviated octaves' notation |

In the main text we suggest adding an accent after the previous 3 bars. The absence of the mark is probably an oversight by the engraver, who overlooked it in a new line. category imprint: Editorial revisions |

In A, the dashes marking the extent of dim. appear only in bar 129.

For our main text we adopt the version of GC. That version was also reproduced in GE, albeit inaccurately (the slur in bar 135) and it was additionally revised in GE2 (dots in the L.H. in bars 129-130). The notation of EE may also be considered a less accurate rendition of that version. The long slur of FE was added in print, probably at Chopin's request, and replaced a shorter one beginning from bar 134, which was definitely erroneous. That version should be therefore considered an alternative authentic approach to phrasing and articulation markings for that fragment. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE , Inaccuracies in GC |
