EE, FED & FES

..

The fingering digit added over the 5th semiquaver ('1') in a proofreading of FE (→GE) is erroneous, which is revealed by comparison with analogous figures in bars 81 and 83. The conclusion is confirmed by corrections in FED and FES written with pencil. The correct digit '2' is also in EE.

..

The indication sempre legatiss. was added in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). It could be assumed that Chopin added it instead of a slur in bars 85-88, overlooked in FE. A similar addition in bar 81 suggests, however, that the composer did not see anything wrong with simultaneous presence of both indications. Therefore, in the main text we give both the slur and the verbal indication.
