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

The traces of erasure visible in A prove that some marks in the bottom part of the stave were being removed. Perhaps Chopin initially wrote the L.H. part in the 2nd half of the bar an octave lower (by mistake – cf. the Ballade in G minor, Op. 23, bars 159-160).

 in EE is probably a result of Chopin proofreading of the base text to this edition. However, according to us, the version of the remaining sources can be considered to be equal.
