b. 176

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

b1 tied in FE (→GE1,EE)

b1 repeated in GE2 (→GE3)

..

The missing tie of b1 is almost certainly an oversight of the engraver of GE2 (→GE3) – the tie in GE1 blends in with the stave, whereas in GE1a it is actually imperceptible.

b. 176-180

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

The repetition of b. 176-183 is written out in full in AsI, and not marked with repeat signs, as it was performed in the remaining sources. In order to keep the uniform numbering of bars, compliant with the version intended for publication, the bars making up the second presentation of b. 176-182 were not included in the systemic numbering; in the notes we define them as b. 176'-182'. We mark the two versions (volte) of b. 183 as b. 183(1v) and 183(2v), also with respect to AsI. Consequently, nominally, page 33 of the scan of AsI includes only b. 183, in spite of the fact that b. 183(1v) and 176'-181' are written down on it, whereas page 34 encompasses b. 184-188, in spite of the fact that b. 182' and 183(2v) are written down before b. 184. In the transcriptions of AsI – graphic (transcript) and content (edited text) – it is the first record of b. 176-182 in this source that is presented as b. 176-182, in accordance with the assigned numbering, whereas the transcriptions of the second record (b. 176'-182') can be seen on an additional page, available via the following links:

Wherever in AsI any of the bars of the second record presents a version that is different from the remaining ones, we provide it among the variants of the respective bar of the first record.

b. 176

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

Basic version of AsI, and text of A (→GEFE,EE,FESB)

Alternative version in AsI, first edition

Alternative version in AsI, 2nd edition

..

In AsI the 2nd half of the bar most probably had 3 versions, out of which we give the earliest, written down in regular script, as the text of this manuscript (it is compliant with the version of the remaining sources). According to us, the text added then in a smaller, draft-like script contains a version used in the remaining sources in b. 180 and 192 and its earlier edition, written down as if they created one version. The existence of two editions of this melodic and rhythmic idea is indicated by the different size of noteheads and by the record, suggesting replacing smaller notes with slightly bigger ones (yet still smaller than in the initial record).
