b. 756-761

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No signs in A (→FEEE)

 hairpins in FC (→GE)

..

The  hairpin in b. 756-757 and 760-761 was added by Chopin in FC (→GE). In b. 756-757 the mark is also in A, yet it was deleted together with the indication written over it.

b. 756

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

marcato in A (literal reading→FCGE1)

marcato in A (contextual interpretation) & GE2 (→GE3)

marcato in FE (→EE)

..

A initially contained the word ben, which Chopin then deleted, written before the indication marcato. As a result, in FC (→GE1) marcato begins around the 3rd crotchet in b. 756, which may suggest that it is valid only just from this note. In FE (→EE), due to the transition into a new line, the indication was moved to b. 757. In the main text we place it in the starting point of the original indication ben marcato. Such a solution was introduced also in GE2 (→GE3).

There is a visible deletion of a hardly legible indication under the R.H. part. The last word is probably forza. See also b. 756-761.

b. 756-757

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In A Chopin deleted the slurs over the three-note motifs, beginning on the 2nd beat of b. 756, 757, 760 and 761. It could have been related to the addition of the indication marcato.

b. 756-760

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

2 staccato dots in A (→FEEE) & GE2

No marks in GE1

1 dot in GE3

..

The missing staccato dot in b. 756 in FC (→GE1) is most probably an oversight. It was also the dot in b. 760 that was overlooked in GE1, which, most probably, is also an oversight. By adding both dots, the reviser of GE2 correctly guessed Chopin's intention. In turn, the origin of the version of GE3 is puzzling, since there is no acceptable reason to remove the dot in b. 760. Consequently, it is either an erroneous revision or a misprint.

b. 757-769

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In the main text we add cautionary flats before the G-g octaves in b. 757, 761, 765, 767 and 769. The accidentals were added also in GE2 (→GE3).
