Although the revisers of EE and GE2 used semiquavers in the group of small notes probably after analogous b. 25, Chopin wrote those notes as semiquavers also in the discussed bar – see the adjacent note. It cannot be ruled out that the change of semiquavers to quavers resulted from distraction at the time of copying this bar. Therefore, the version with semiquavers may be considered an acceptable variant of notation (actually, both versions indicate the same performance). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |

In spite of the unequivocal notation of A, the L.H. slurs were reproduced erroneously both in FC (→GE) and FE (→EE). Fontana omitted both slurs of A; however, he provided the triplets in b. 8 with conventional slurs (he also did it in b. 12). In turn, it is difficult to say what could have prompted the engraver of FE to combine the slurs, which is contrary to the notation of A. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors of FC |

Bar 7 is marked in A (→FC) in an abridged manner as repetition of b. 6. It brings into question the slurring, since the slur over b. 8 begins in A before the end of b. 7, which suggests that it should be combined with the preceding slur, which, in fact, is not written out. In FE (→EE) the slurs are not combined; however, since both the range and the shape of the slur in b. 8 suggest that it should be continued, in the main text we encompass these bars with a continuous slur. The slur of FC, although generally very similar to the slur of A, does not imply continuation, hence the motif in b. 8 in GE is encompassed with a separate slur. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A |
