b. 224-225

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

..

In the L.H. part in EE1 in bar 224 the text of the next bar was printed (without performance markings and the ledger line for the 2nd crotchet). It resulted in an erroneous, although acceptable in terms of pitch, text in bar 244 (c-c1-b-b1) and in vague and rather illogical three first crotchets in bar 225, which are a1-a2-g2. It is difficult to say how the performers playing from EE1 dealt with this version, hence we do not try to create a content transcription in this case, which would be purely hypothetical.
As far as the remaining sources are concerned, in GE (→FE,EE,IE) a flat to the 3rd crotchet in bar 224 (g) and a flat to the 2nd crotchet in bar 225 (c1) were added, omitted in A.

In the main text we add a cautionary  to g2, whereas we omit the  to d2 in the 2nd half of the bar, unnecessarily repeated in A. The latter was also performed in GE (→FE,EE,IE).

In A there are no flats to d2 in bar 227 and to gand G in bar 228. All the accidentals were already added in GE (→FE,EE,IE).
