Pitch

b. 439

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

c2 in EE & GC (→GE)

c2 in FE
..

In FE, the lack of  raising c2 to c2 was most probably omitted. However, it is also possible for harmony to retain a version with c2.

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

We add cautionary sharps before f2 and f1.

b. 440

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

Cautionary sharps before d1 and d2 in EE must be arbitrary additions as they cannot be found in any other sources. Compare b. 445.

b. 443

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

In the copyist's notation of this chord in GC there is no ledger line for a2 (compare identical errors in bars 91 and 100). The line penciled in here was most probably added by the egraver or editor.

b. 444

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

Before the highest note of the chord in GC and FE there's no   lowering c3 to c3, which obviously is an omission.
