Issues : Cautionary accidentals

b. 22

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

..

In CLI the 10th semiquaver is written as an a2, which constitutes a natural cause of changes in the notation of the accidentals appearing in the further part of the bar. Lack of the  returning g2 on the penultimate semiquaver is, however, a patent error. In the majority of sources there is a reminding (?)  before the last note in the bar – only Ap and GE4 (→GE5) omit this rather unnecessary sign.

Similarly as two bars before, Ap features chords with the span of an octave on the 2nd beat of these bars. In the main text we give the chords with the span of a seventh present in the remaining sources.

In bar 23 there is no cautionary  before b.

In CLI and FEcor there are no accidentals before the fourth in the lower voice, which is certainly a mistake.
CLI and FE (→GE1GE2GE4,→EE) have an unnecessary  before b2 in this place.

In one of the last proofreadings of FE the A-a octave was preceded with naturals, which are highly unjustified here. The signs were probably added – by Chopin or perhaps by the reviser who worked with him – together with the necessary  returning a2 on the 12th semiquaver; it is possible that this is the fact that influenced the person introducing the corrections. The naturals are not included in the manuscripts, they were also removed from GE4 (→GE5).
