In two autographs, AO and AK, Chopin wrote an abbreviated tempo marking, Allto, which we expand - Allegretto.
The tempo and metronome markings in FEF and GEF are certainly inauthentic. In the editions, the metronome is written on the left-hand side next to the first great stave. Following the contemporary convention, we place it next to the tempo marking. The tempo marking is followed by a dot in both sources; in GEF, a dot is present also after the metronome marking - we do not take them into consideration in the edition.
