b. 216-217

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

5 staccato dots in A

4 wedges in GE (→IE)

Wedges in b. 217 in FE

No marks in EE1

4 dots in EE2

..

In the main text we reproduce the 5 staccato marks – undoubtedly dots – entered into A. In GE (→IE) the mark at the beginning of bar 217 was omitted, while the remaining ones were reproduced as wedges. The absence of the marks in FE (bar 216) and EE1 (in both bars) is due to the engravers' mistakes. In EE2 marks were added in the places in which they are present in GE, yet dots were used, as in bar 215.

b. 216

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

Quavers in A

Crotchets in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

..

At the beginning of bar 216 and 220 in the main text we keep the typical, simplified A rhythmic notation. In GE (→FE,EE,IE) the rhythmic value of the top note was changed to a crotchet, most probably in order to complete the top voice rhythm.

Given g in the previous and next bars, we may assume that also the middle note of the chord in the second half of b. 25 was intended by Chopin to be g and he must have overlooked . However, the version is no less musically satisfactory, and so, assuming Chopin did not make a mistake, we provide this version for the main text.

FE1 does not have  for the topmost note of the chord in the L.H. That obvious omission was corrected in FE2.
