The d1-e1 second featured in FE and GE1 is the original version, which is proven by the comparison with the remaining four analogous places in bars 49, 81, 113 and 269. In three out of five places Chopin added to it a g1 note in FEG (→GE). In EE the completed version with the d1-e1-g1 chord is in all five places, which also proves Chopin's proofreading. Therefore, the fact of leaving the original version of the discussed bar in FE and GE1 must be considered as Chopin's oversight. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Accompaniment changes , Omitted correction of an analogous place , Authentic corrections of EE |

As in bar 169, next to the bottom note of the 1st sixth in the 2nd half of the bar there is no accidental neither in A nor in GC and FE, which were proofread by Chopin. Therefore, we should accept this note to be d2, and that is what we give in the main text, supplemented with a cautionary . category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |

A (→FE1,EE,GC→GE1→GE2) has a c1-f1 fourth as the 2nd quaver. A comparison with analogous bar 169 points to a highly likely Chopin's error, which is proven by Chopin's proofreading of FE2 (→FE3). The correct version, most probably based on the mentioned analogy, was introduced also in GE3. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Terzverschreibung error , GE revisions , Errors of A , Authentic corrections of FE |

Characteristic of Gutmann, written with elan, the L.H. slurs in GC (→GE) are certainly inaccurate. EE overlooked both slurs. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE inaccuracies , Inaccuracies in GC |

In GC (→GE) Chopin added cautionary naturals next to b2 in the R.H. and b in the L.H. Such a double addition virtually excludes the possibility of a mistake – it is about neither restoring d2 in the R.H. nor a cautionary before the L.H. g1. The composer presumably forgot that a from the key signature is no longer effective. In the main text we omit these accidentals, adding a cautionary before g1 instead. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors resulting from corrections , Authentic corrections of FE |
