It is difficult to evaluate the authenticity of the fingering of FEH in bars 111 and 113 – the digits are very similar to the Chopinesque ones, but the fingering differs from the one written by Chopin (in pencil, under Miss Stirling's entry written in ink) in FES. From the pianistic point of view, both fingerings are natural and convenient – in the fingering of FES, the next note, b1, is most probably to be performed with the 5th finger; it may be easier for a smaller hand. The digits added by Fontana in EE define the same fingering that was written in FEH. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Differences in fingering , Annotations in FES , Annotations in FEH |

The fingering added in EE by Fontana is adjusted to the probably erroneous version of the 6th semiquaver of the bar (although its application in the version adopted in the main text is naturally possible). This fact most probably proves that it is totally arbitrary. The fingering of both sources, compliant in the ascending part of the passage, suggests changing the hand position marked by the placement of the 1st finger, which was on the a1 note in the previous passage. However, the Chopinesque fingering added to FES in the 2nd half of the bar, where the 1st finger is also on a1, suggests that Chopin meant to preserve this position also in the discussed passage, filling the 1st half of the bar. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Differences in fingering , Annotations in FEH |

In AsI, in both bars, Chopin added a fingering with pencil; in b. 114 it was already a second version of fingering, replacing the earlier ink entry. In the main text we include the later version; as alternative solutions, we suggest the earlier version or both in a variant form. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Differences in fingering |

The fingering in FEH raises doubts concerning the interpretation of the first digit applying to e3. It seems that it is a '1,' but it would be inconsistent with the fingering of an identical place in bars 120-121 written in this copy – the 1st finger on the last g category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Differences in fingering , Annotations in FEH |
