The wedges over and under the first notes in bars 25, 27, 29, and 31 are only in PE. We consider this improvement of the notation, most probably introduced into [A], in the main text. The first of the wedges for the L.H. was mistakenly put under G in bar 24. In bar 31, only the sign referring to the L.H. was printed. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in PE |

In JC, the 1st quaver in the L.H., F, was overseen. The definite error is revealed by the analogy with the motifs from the subsequent bars, lack of a relevant rest, compatible version of the remaining sources. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors of JC |

In PE, the notation of the ornaments on the 2nd quaver in bars 25, 27, 29, and 31 is heterogeneous and taking into account coherent indications in JC and EF (four times ) – probably inaccurate. Therefore, for the main text we adopt the notation of JC and EF. As an alternative solution, we propose a possible reconstruction of Chopin's idea in [A]. After all, the difference does not have any impact on the performance. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in PE |

In bars 25 and 27, the part of the L.H. in the sources is generally the same, as far as the sound is concerned, yet the way of its notation is different in each of them. In the main text we adopt the notation based on PE. At the same time, we propose to complete the tie sustaining f, most probably overseen in PE in bars 25-26. Such an error is suggested by the comparison with both analogous bars 27-28 and 29-30 in this edition and by the hold of the note in JC and EF. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Source & stylistic information issues: Errors of JC |

The dotted rhythm at the beginning of the 3rd beat of the bar in JC and EF is most probably an earlier version in relation to equal semiquavers of PE, which we give in the main text. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Dotted or even rhythm |
