The missing   in GC (→GE) is probably the copyist's oversight. Among marginal differences in the range of signs in particular sources, only the shorter hairpins of AW may suggest a slightly different shaping of the nuance. In the main text, we give the hairpins on the basis of FE (and CDP).

AT, AW and CDP do not have here the  before the 5th (e2) quaver. In AW and CDP, the inaccuracy is also in bar 26, while in CDP also in bar 57.

composition: Op. 25 No 4, Etude in A minor

At the beginning of bars 7 and 15 we add cautionary naturals before G and g. The signs before the 1st quaver in both bars were introduced in GE and EE3, before the second – only in GE2 (→GE3).

Hairpins in A

No signs in GE1op & GE1Ab
..

The  hairpin is shifted in FE – contrary to A – to the beginning of the bar. In the editors opinion, this is due to inaccuracy. In GE1op and GE1Ab both  and  signs were overlooked in these bars, what later versions of GE supplemented.
