In the version prepared for print, the first fingering numerals appear not until bar 12. However, during the lessons with Chopin, the indications concerning the fingering proved to be necessary already earlier. In the main text we consider the fingering written by Chopin in FES. In EE Fontana also offered his suggestion for bar 1, yet this fingering, avoiding the use of the 1st finger on black keys, diverts from the one by Chopin.

In the printed version Chopin did not give the fingering. In the main text, we, however, include the abundant indications in this respect, given in AW and entered during lessons into FED and FES. The complementary fingering versions are discussed in one note, whereas these that can be considered independently are included in separate notes.
