b. 260

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

In  there is no  raising g to g. This patent oversight may be considered a confirmation of Chopin's confusion as to the validity of the key signature accidentals – cf. bar 255, in which a similar mistake in the same chord remained unnoticed in A as well.

in A (→GE) & EE2

No sign in FE (→EE1)

The  hairpin was probably added to A after [FC] had been finished, which explains its absence in FE (→EE1). In EE2 the mark was added after GE1.

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

Slurs in A (→GE) & EE2

No slurs in FE (→EE1)

..

The absence of slurs in FE (→EE1) probably means that Chopin added them to A after [FC] had been finished. In EE2 the slurs were added after GE1.

The staccato dot written by Chopin in FEG may be ambiguous: it is not known whether it concerns the octave in the R.H. in bar 261 or the octave in the L.H. in the great stave right above it, in bar 256. It may be the reason explaining why the sign was not included in GE1 (→GE2GE3). The sign included in EE is also not entirely clear – in spite of the fact that it resembles a wedge, it has a dot in its structure. Therefore, it is hard to conclude what was written in Chopin base text to EE; hence to the main text we adopt a staccato dot, written by Chopin's hand in FEG.
