In the main text we give the pedalling added by Chopin in the proofreading of FE (→EE). In accordance with the observations expressed in the note to b. 65-76 on combining the bars based on the same chord with one pedal, one can assume that it was a routine operation of the composer, just like in a few other places, and that he did not consider a longer hold of pedal, more natural in this context. However, since analog. b. 247-248 are also provided with a pedal change, where the pedalling of FC was written independently, we suggest the version with a two-bar pedal only as an acceptable alternative solution. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

The two accents written in AF in analogous b. 19 and 111 have the characteristics that are frequently encountered in the notation of short accents – the mark tilted upwards and a relatively big angle between the arms. However, the mark in the discussed bar is less characteristic in this respect; therefore, we assume that it is a long accent. In FE (→EE) it was placed under the L.H. chord by mistake, which Chopin then corrected in the last stage of proofreading by adding a second accent under the R.H. triplet. According to us, the added accent – certainly long – tips the balance in favour of long accents in all analogous bars. The short accent in GE may be considered an alternative version. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in FE , Authentic corrections of FE |

FE overlooked the staccato dot over the a quaver. The mark was added in EE, probably due to the dot under the L.H. octave and by analogy with, e.g. b. 111 and 113. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE |
