Crotchets in CLI & Ap

Different values in FE (→GE,EE

..

Same as in bars 4 and 12, the rhythmic corrections written in FEcor confirm that the crotchets in CLI and Ap are the original version changed by Chopin in all three analogous places.

The articulation of the accompanying two-note chords, extended in Ap in bars 9-10 and 13-15, seems to be a one-time exclusive idea or a certain transitional stage in the shaping process of the Etude's text.

The fifth on the 3rd beat of the bar in CLI is probably the original version. The sources also reflect Chopin's hesitation concerning the position of the cautionary  before c1. In the main text we adopt – following FE (→EE2EE3) – the accidental before the chord on the 3rd beat of the bar.

Second in CLI & Ap

d3 in FE (→GE,EE

..

The second in CLI and Ap is the original version, compatible with the general texture scheme of the Etude, in which the chromatic passages in the upper voice are accompanied with two-note chords. In the main text we give the version introduced in FEcor (→FEGE,EE). Chopin had already introduced a similar change in analogous bar 15, both in Ap and in the base text for FE.
