In FE (→GE,EE), the trilled note is a c2. In FEO, it was changed to b1, most probably by Chopin. We consider this correction to be final and we adopt it in the main text.

In the main text, we give the fingering written in pencil to FES (with one added digit for more clarity), coming most probably from Chopin. A different fingering, probably coming from Chopin, is in FESf. The poorly legible annotation in FEO may be interpreted in a variety of ways – we suggest these interpretations that lead to a pianistically natural fingering as variants.

The fingering in EE comes from the editor and it is inauthentic.
