Differentiation between the staccato marks in FE (→EE) – a wedge in bar 111 and a dot in bar 113 – could have been intended by Chopin, although being deprived of access to [A], one cannot exclude a mistake in the manuscript's reproduction. Unification of the markings in GE is almost certainly an arbitrary revision; according to us, a possible use of wedges in both bars is much more likely, since young Chopin considered them the basic marking of staccato. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Wedges |

The uncommonly precise indications in FEH were written by two different persons, which can be explained by the fact that, e.g. a pupil completed the teacher's entry. One digit given by Fontana in EE practically defines the same fingering, perhaps except for the last a1. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Annotations in FEH |

In Atut (→FE), the slurring of the bass motifs is less accurate here than for the first time (bars 99-102) – the slur encompasses only the quavers in bar 111. According to us, it was caused by the fact that bar 111 is the last one on a page of Atut – while finishing that page, Chopin entered a slur under the part of motif he saw and, due to haste, forgot about the slurs on the next page. It also seems that the slur encompassing the first 3 quavers was the original idea – the shape of the slur in bars 99-100, written first, suggests that Chopin decided to lead it further, to the crotchet, only at the moment of writing it. Taking that into account, in the main text, in bars 111-114, we suggest such slurs as in analogous bars 99-102. In GE and EE, the shorter slur in bar 111 was kept and a similar one was added in bar 113. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |

In Atut, the first third in this bar is provided with two staccato marks – a dot under the notes and a wedge over them. Chopin perhaps put the second mark sometime after the first one, which he did not notice when reviewing the manuscript. However, it is uncertain which of the marks was "first." In the main text, we decided to put the wedge, more frequently used by Chopin in that period of his life in similar situations. In FE (→EE), there is a dot, which was probably overlooked in GE. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions , Wedges |
