b. 185-186

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

The deletions visible in A at the beginning of the 2nd half of bar 185 demonstrate that Chopin changed the 7th R.H. semiquaver. The removed semiquaver was probably a g1-c2 fourth. Similarly, we can guess that the deleted 7th semiquaver in bar 186 sounded a1-d2.

 and the accent are subsequent indications belonging to the group of the indications added by Chopin in [AG] in the final fragment of the Mazurka – cf., e.g. b. 173-176, 177, 180-188. We present them as laid out in GE1, which was based directly on [AG].
