b. 228

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

d2 & d2 in sources

d2 & d2 suggested by the editors
..

The version of the sources, in which both the second and the last quaver feature d2 (without any accidental), is almost certainly due to Chopin's oversight, who, after writing a  lowering d2 to d2 at the end of the preceding bar, did not notice that he should have repeated it only just 2 quavers farther on. This assumption is confirmed by an analogous sequence in bar 68, which includes a respective . Taking into account the above, in the main text we add a  in the discussed place, as well as a , necessary in this case, restoring d2 at the end of the bar.

In A there is no  restoring f2 on the last quaver. Chopin's patent oversight was corrected in GE (→FE,EE,IE).

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

FE has an G1-F seventh as the 2nd quaver. The mistake was not noticed in any of the proofreadings, it was, however, corrected in EE, which could have been performed by the reviser. GC (→GE) features the correct text.
