JC

The sources differ in the notation of the first chord in the R.H.:
- in JC, all three components are combined with one stem; such a kind of notation can often be found in Chopin sources, also in autographs. However, taking into consideration numerous errors and inaccuracies, JC cannot be considered as a fully reliable source in terms of the notation's details.
-
in EF there is a two-part notation: the minim a-e
1 has a separate stem pointing downwards. -
in PE the notation is unclear; probably it refers to a two-part notation in which the minim a-e1 has a stem pointing upwards. This is the interpretation we give in the main text.
