Dynamic markings in A

GE1

FE

EE

GE2 (→GE3)

The editors' proposition

The dynamic markings in those bars are consistent in the sources as regards their essential meaning, yet they differ in graphic details. For our main text we adopt the version combined from authentic elements of A (the moment of beginning the cresc. in bar 92) and of FE as corrected by Chopin (the extent of dashes delimiting the scope of the dynamic change).
