Alternating wedges & staccato dots in FE

staccato dots in GE

Wedge & dot in b. 194-195 in EE

Chopin alternately marked the figuration bass notes with wedges and staccato dots. In the remaining editions the markings were reproduced inaccurately:

  • in GE wedges were changed to dots (as in the entire Variations – see bar 7), while the dot in bar 193 was probably overlooked;
  • in EE the markings in bars 192-193 were omitted, probably due to distraction – they appear in a new line.
