In FE no naturals lowering d3 to d3 in b. 470 or d2 to d2 in b. 472 must be seen as errors, which is further confirmed by their lack in GC, despite the fact that Chopin personally filled them in. Naturals in EE may have been added based on the previous three corresponding occurrences of this phrase (bars 176, 220 and 308). Sharps in bars 445, 447, 466 also show that Chopin was not sure over a longer phrase if (d) belonged to the key signature. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Omission of current key accidentals , Last key signature sign , Authentic corrections in GC |

Consistent slurs in EE and FE must be authentic, they correspond to articulation and pianistic mini-gestures. A visible correction of the slur in GC proves the copyist's allertness at this moment but it may have been made by Chopin himself. Therefore, we give precedence to GC as it resonates with the energy of the motif that echoes the ending of the just sounded chorale phrase. It is difficult to determine why this correction was not included in GE. Similarly to the previous bars, in GE the slur in RH was repeated in the LH part. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections in GC |

Disregarding the first chord, in EE there is no lowering all d to d in different octaves. This was the exact copyist's notation of GC, however Chopin added five out of thirteen nevessary accidentals. The notation of FE and GE is completely correct. category imprint: issues: Errors in EE , GE revisions , Omission of current key accidentals , Last key signature sign , Inaccuracies in GC , Authentic corrections in GC |
