composition: Op. 2, Variation IV, primitive version
..
In the 1st half of the bar (2. volta) the principal AsI version (written first, with normal-sized notes) refers to the principal version of bars 1-2 and 5-6 – the hemidemisemiquaver group does not move in parallel with the melody semiquavers. Nevertheless, this version is compatible (in an acceptable way) with both versions of the 2nd half of bar 7, hence these places can be treated independently. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Accompaniment changes , Main-line changes |

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete
..
The version with the quaver b1 and without the grace notes ending the trill is written twice in AsI, in the main sequence of the score and in the first measure of the solo part, written next to the new version of the orchestral introduction. Chopin later marked the grace notes in the main sequence, but there is no indication that at this stage he also planned to extend the trill to the value of a crotchet. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Main-line changes |

The version of As, replaced then by the final edition of those motifs, resulted from corrections itself. Their traces in the form of crossings-out are almost invisible on the available photograph; however, a comparison with similarly looking corrections in b. 18-19 suggests that in both places Chopin began with similar ideas and then changed them in a similar manner. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Main-line changes , Fontana's revisions |

composition: Op. 63 No. 1, Mazurka in B major
..
In an earlier version, written down in AI, the entire bar is based on a B major chord, while the thirds in the melody constitute a delay. The final version replaced the melodic tension with harmonic one by introducing a diminished four-note chord as the chord leading to B major.
