In AsI one can see that the bass note on the 4th quaver in the bar was remade, that is B1 was changed to D. According to us, it could have been a simplified correction, marking the change of both first hemidemisemiquavers, which would result in a text compliant with A. However, it is only a conjecture, hence we regard the AsI text as an intermediate variant between a figure starting with a B1-B octave and the A version with a D-d octave. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections of AI |

In AsI the 3rd hemidemisemiquaver in each group is b. However, the manuscript bears traces of hesitation with respect to the pitch of these groups – in three of them, over the 4th note (c) one can see an added notehead of a g note, crossed out in the 1st and 3rd groups. Therefore, it seems that Chopin pondered replacing the final c note with g, yet he gave up on the idea. The A text, in which g replaced not the 4th, but the 3rd note in the passages (b) would mean that Chopin changed the 2nd pair of hemidemisemiquavers in these figures 3 times – he started from b-c, which he changed to b-g, then he returned to initial b-c, to eventually change them to g-c. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Chopin's hesitations , Accompaniment changes , Corrections of AI |
