We reproduce the dotted rhythms against the triplets in the R.H. in accordance with the notation of A (→FC), in which the semiquavers fall exactly over the 3rd quaver of the accompanying triplets. In FE (→EE) and GE the semiquavers were arbitrarily moved beyond the 3rd note of the triplets, contrary to the convention Chopin would use all his life. See the Nocturne in C Minor, Op. 27 No. 1, b. 5-13. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Dotted rhythms and triplets , FE revisions |

In the main text we give the slur of FE (→EE), since the vast majority of subsequent slurs, present in a similar context, is led to the 1st quaver in the next bar in A – out of 13 slurs in b. 1-12 and 15, it is only the slurs in b. 1, 8 and 10 that end on the 6th quaver; two (in b. 6 and 9) are ambiguous. We consider all the above slurs to be inaccurate, since the differences in the range of slurs are not related to the structure of motifs, e.g. the shorter slurs in b. 1 and 8 are opposed by the longer ones in similar figures in b. 2 and 7. Moreover, in A one can see corrections – the slurs in b. 4-5 and 5-6 were being extended (in b. 3-4 probably too). Along with the crossed-out staccato dot at the beginning of b. 2, it may indicate that the concept of markings of those figures changed from to . Consequently, the aforementioned shorter slurs would be uncorrected elements of the initial slurring. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Corrections in A , FE revisions , Omitted correction of an analogous place , Inaccuracies in FC |

FE erroneously gives d instead of c as the last L.H. quaver in each of these bars. The errors, caused probably by this note in bar 1 being written somewhat imprecisely in A (bar 2 is marked as a repetition of bar 1 in the manuscripts), were corrected in FE2 (→EE). category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , FE revisions |

It is difficult to say whether the L.H. top voice rest was added in FE by Chopin or by the engraver/reviser. As it does not appear in any of the eight further repetitions of this bar and is absent in the remaining sources, we do not include it in the main text. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of FE , FE revisions |
