b. 183

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

..

In A, FC3 and GE1 there is no  on g1 in the RH part.

b. 183

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

1 accent in GC (→GE)

5 accents in EE
..

The omitted accents in both GC (→GE) and EE most probably result from inadvertence. Having completed copying notes and beams from an additional staff in A, the copyist might have looked at the main staff on which only the accent above the octave a-a1 is written.

b. 183

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

Staccato dot in A (→GC→GE)

No dot in FE & EE
..

The lack of a staccato dot in FE and EE results most probably from oversight.

b. 183-184

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

b-g1 tied in A (→FE) & GE3

b-g1 repeated in GC (→GE1→GE2)

Only g1 tied in EE
..

The ties sustaining the sixth b-g1 were overlooked – both in GC (→GE1→GE2), the lower one in EE. The mistake was corrected in GE3, possibly after FE.

b. 183

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

e1 in A (→FE,EE)

f1 in GC (→GE)

e1 with  suggested by the editors
..

The version with f1 occurring in GC (→GE) is certainly mistaken – in the copy the note in question was not changed from the A version, and there is no clear reason for this bar to differ from the analogous bar 179. In the main text we add a cautionary  before that e1.
