b. 4-6

composition: Op. 10 No 8, Etude in F major

Fingering in A

FE (→GE)

..

In the main text we give the fingering of the L.H., written by Chopin in A. In FE (→GE) the '3' digit was overlooked in bar 5, which is almost certainly an oversight. In EE Fontana completed the fingering at the beginning of bar 5, adding digits for each note. EE3 erroneously features '2' as the 1st digit in bar 4 (it may be a mistake related to the transcription of the "continental" fingering system to the "British" one – cf. General Editorial Principlesp. 10).

b. 22

composition: Op. 10 No 8, Etude in F major

Accent in A (→FEGE) & EE4

No mark in EE3

..

Omission of the accent in EE3 is certainly a mistake, corrected in EE4.

b. 56

composition: Op. 10 No 8, Etude in F major

Two slurs in A (→FEGE)

Four slurs in EE

..

The slurs of EE are probably the engraver's error resulting from different division of the text into great staves. The erroneous slurs were repeated also in the part of the L.H.

b. 89

composition: Op. 10 No 8, Etude in F major

Fingering in A (→FEGE)

..

The fingering given in EE at the beginning of the 2nd half of the bar is certainly erroneous (most probably the engraver mistakenly repeated here the set of digits from the previous group of semiquavers).
