b. 87-88

 

 

 

 

Lack of the cresc. hairpins in A (→GE1) in those bars (and also in bars 90-94) is most probably a result of Chopin's inattention. We give the hairpins after FE, compatible with those which we adopted for analogous bars 83-84.
The accidental omission of the marks is indicated by:
– presence of hairpins in A before and between the aforementioned fragments, as well as after them;
– presence of the indications in FE and EE;
– presence of analogous indications in bars 5-6 and 8-12.
The omissions are one of the proofs of Chopin's slightly worse concentration while writing the reprise in A (cf. characteristics of A)
