The missing pedalling markings in GE may be an inadvertence of Chopin or a mistake of the engraver – cf. the note to b. 137-138. Due to this reason, in the main text we give the pedalling markings of AF (→FE→EE), particularly since they are present in FE, in which Chopin proofread the accompaniment in this bar – see the note above. category imprint: Differences between sources |

The ending of the slur of GE1 in b. 140 (at the end of the line) suggests that it should be continued, although the last part of the slur is poorly visible. However, there is no ending of the slur in b. 141, and in GE2 the slur clearly ends on f category imprint: Differences between sources |

In A (→FE→GE), there is no accidental to the 4th L.H. crotchet. Chopin's patent, as it seems, oversight went unnoticed by FE and the majority of GE; it was corrected only by EE and GE1a. In A, the L.H. part was being corrected in this bar; consequently, due to deletions, Chopin was forced to write the final version on an adjacent stave. However, the flat was not overlooked due to the corrections, since it was also absent in the initial version of notation. The change concerned mainly rhythm, i.e. there were rests instead of the 3rd and 6th crotchets: category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: EE revisions , Corrections in A , GE revisions , Deletions in A , Accompaniment changes , Inaccuracies in A , Errors repeated in GE , Errors repeated in FE |

In AsI the L.H. part is marked in an abridged manner with the word unisono, written in every bar. The alternative L.H. part is written on the same stave, which we change for better legibility of the transcription: we separate the parts by placing the alternative one on an additional stave, as was performed by the other sources. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Abbreviated notation of A |
