The presence of wedge only for the second time (in bar 321), as it is in FE (→EE), is to be considered an inaccuracy, according to us. Chopin put the mark in this bar perhaps due to the missing hand transfer, but even then, it would not mean that he envisaged a different articulation for the 1st quaver in bar 320. However, most probably, the difference came into being by accident, as a result of inadvertence of Chopin himself or of the engraver. Taking that into account, in the main text we add a wedge in bar 320. An overlooked wedge also in bar 321 is most probably a mistake of GE. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Errors in GE |

In each of three analogous bars (bars 319-321), the sources feature a cautionary before the 1st semiquaver of the 3rd beat. According to us, when the figure is repeated, in bars 320-321, the marks are no more necessary. category imprint: Editorial revisions issues: Cautionary accidentals |

It is difficult to guess what kind of factors influenced EE for arbitrarily changing, only in this bar, 3 accents over b3 to vertical ones. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |

The version of EE and GE3 is a revision unifying this bar with analogous bar 324. It cannot be ruled out that FE misinterpreted the notation of [A] in this place, hence that version may be considered an equal variant. However, in the main text we preserve the notation of FE (→GE1→GE2), which, despite being apparently less accurate, suggests a performance nuance that was perhaps intended by Chopin. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |

The added wedge may be considered justified – in analogous bars the respective note is always marked staccato. In spite of that, in the main text we preserve the version of FE (→GE1→GE2), since the note may be considered to be the first appearance of the top pedal note, and it cannot be excluded that Chopin imagined it being performed differently than before. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |
