  b. 4

No marking in A (→GEFE,EE1,IE)

in EE2

The fact that the EE2 reviser added an indication cancelling the formally applicable  is justified, since  is most probably a mistake here – see the previous note. According to us, one should probably refer here to the dynamics at the beginning of the Sonata's first phrase, that is . The indication added by EE2 is a compromise solution and does not represent typical Chopinesque dynamic markings – the composer would generally mark the dynamics between  and  as m.v. (mezza voce).
