b. 143-144

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

..

The crotchets in the L.H. in the 2nd half of each of these bars are written in the sources in the treble clef, which raises doubts, as far as the validity of the accidentals from the 1st half is concerned:

  •  before e1 in bar 143 is present in all sources;
  •  before e1 in bar 144 was added in GE, FE4 and EE2;
  •  before e in bar 144 appears only in GE.

In the graphical layout adopted in the main text the signs are not necessary.

b. 144-146

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

..

In the 2nd half of bar 144 and 146 there are no accidentals in A. Chopin was generally convinced that notes written at the same pitch do not require repeating accidentals regardless of the presence of an octave sign. The then contemporary rules were not fully established yet, which is proven by the fact that the notation was left unchanged in FE1. Eventually, however, both FE2 (→EE) and GE added all accidentals. Similarly, in further such passages.
