When interpreted literally, the Tempo primo indication directs us to the beginning of the piece, which, of course, could not have been intended by Chopin. Therefore, formally speaking, come prima would be more appropriate, which means, among others, 'as before'. We keep the source indication, as the texture clearly indicates that it should be the tempo of the main section of the Fantasy that should be continued. category imprint: Source & stylistic information issues: Errors of A , Errors repeated in GE , Errors repeated in FE , Errors repeated in EE |

The ten. indication was almost certainly added to A after [FC] had been finished (along with and the accents), which explains its absence in FE (→EE). In GE1 it was overlooked (along with the slur – see the adjacent note), while in GE2 – added. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions |

Both versions of the dynamic markings are almost certainly authentic and were most probably added by Chopin independently to A and to [FC] or while proofreading FE. In EE2 the markings were changed after GE1. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions |

The missing in FE (→EE1) most probably means that Chopin added it to A after the basis for FE had been finished, that is [FC]. However, in the case of a single mark, an oversight cannot be ruled out either. In EE2 the mark was certainly added after comparing it with GE1. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |

The cresc. - - indication was most probably added to A after [FC] had been finished. GE reproduced it inaccurately, suggesting that its range should be longer. EE repeated the indication – in a reduced form – after GE1. Similarly, in bars 258-259. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE |
