Issues : Cautionary accidentals
b. 4
|
composition: Op. 30 No. 2, Mazurka in B minor
..
The cautionary to a1 is present only in FE (→EE), perhaps added by Chopin in the stage of proofreading FE. In the main text we also add a to a in the L.H. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Cautionary accidentals , Authentic corrections of FE |

b. 4

composition: Op. 2, Variation IV, primitive version
..
In the main text we add a cautionary to e1. The flat is present in this figure also in AsI (to the 1st hemidemisemiquaver – see the note above). category imprint: Editorial revisions; Source & stylistic information issues: Cautionary accidentals |

b. 5-6
|
composition: WN 17, Polonaise in B♭ major
..
In JC, there are no flats lowering a and a1 into a and a1. The undeniable oversight of Chopin in [A] (→JC) is revealed by the cautionary before a in bar 7. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Cautionary accidentals , Omission of current key accidentals , Errors of JC |

b. 5
|
composition: Op. 28 No. 8, Prelude in F♯ minor
..
In A there is no accidental before the 1st note in the 4th group of demisemiquavers, which should therefore be interpreted as a1. A comparison with analogous b. 1 proves Chopin's mistake; it is also the before the next a2 that confirms a1 as the intended pitch of that note. The natural was added in FC and FE (→EE); however, it is absent in GE, which is probably an oversight of the engraver. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Source & stylistic information issues: Errors in GE , Cautionary accidentals , Errors of A , FE revisions , Fontana's revisions |

b. 6-8
|
composition: Op. 10 No 10, Etude in A♭ major
..
The cautionary before e2 at the beginning of bar 6 was added in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). In the main text we still add a few cautionary signs in bar 8 – flats before a2 on the 3rd and a1 on the 5th quavers, as well as a before f2 on the 6th quaver. The flats were already added in GE2 (→GE3→GE4), while the first of them also in EE4. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , GE revisions , Cautionary accidentals , Authentic corrections of FE |
