Differences in the slur scope are probably the result of Chopin's inaccurate notation in the autograph (or autographs). As all the sources are unanimous in a similar situation found in bars 12-14, we are allowed to consider the slur of GE as best reflecting the composer's intention. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

The slur in GC (→GE), embracing the entire bar 5, is probably imprecise – cf. the slur of the upper voice and a similar situation in bars 13-14. This is probably due to misunderstanding the notation of the autograph (not very precise itself) by the copyist. In the main text we give the slur of FE. The notation of EE (no slur above the lower staff) may be regarded as the original revision of the slurring of that motif (similarly in bars 13-14). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

Missing from GC is the lowering G to G. The accidental was added in GE, the remaining sources also have it in place. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Inaccuracies in GC |

In GC (→GE) the hairpin mark only begins in bar 15. In our main text we reproduce that mark as it appears in EE and FE, and also following analogous situations in bars 6-8 and 18-20. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

As we not sure about Chopin's notation, for our main text we adopt the version that combines the most certain elements from various sources: three accents occur in EE and FE, and short accents in EE and GC (→GE). The omission of the accent in bar 25 in GC (→GE) is probably accidental. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GC |
