The staccato dots, present only in the 2nd and 4th bars of this four-bar section, is probably a result of an inaccuracy of Chopin or of the engraver. In the analogous phrase of the exposition (bars 61-64), the articulation is marked much more accurately, so it seems that Chopin wanted to mark all bass notes in the same manner. According to us, the presence of dots in FE (→EE) in bars 190 and 192 indicate that Chopin imagined all bass notes in the recapitulation to be performed staccato too. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

In GC the majority of the recapitulation (bars 190-257) is written in an abbreviated manner as empty, numerated bars (the numbers correspond with the numbers of bars 2-69 of the first section of Scherzo). In bar 189 the notes are written, yet without any performance indications (except for tempo primo), which was probably supposed to be only an additional indication, from which bar one is to begin repeating the full notation. In spite of this, GE printed in this bar only this version, devoid of articulation signs (cf. the note on them). category imprint: Source & stylistic information issues: Abbreviated notation of A |

The absence of articulation and dynamic indications in GE is a result of misunderstanding of the abbreviated notation of GC. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE |

The absence of the sign in GE most probably means that it was originally absent also in FE, in which it was however added – perhaps by Chopin – in the last stage of proofreadings of FE. In the main text we give the sign written in A in these bars, slightly longer than in the previous appearances of this phrase. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Scope of dynamic hairpins , Errors in GE , Authentic corrections of FE |
