b. 47-48

composition: Op. 10 No 1, Etude in C major

..

In CLI and FE (→GE1→GE2→GE3,→EE) there is no  in the last group of semiquavers in bar 47 and in the second one in bar 48. It is a result of other rules on accidentals than the ones adopted by us in this kind of situations.

We give  after FE, based on the manuscript and corrected by Chopin. In the remaining editions the sign was slightly shortened, while in EE2 it was omitted (cf. bars 71-78).

According to us, g in CLI is not an earlier version, yet a copyist's error, who routinely repeated the accidental of the previous figures.

b. 51

composition: Op. 10 No 1, Etude in C major

No fingering in CLI & FE (→GE)

Fingering in EE
..

Chopin did not give here the fingering, as he probably thought that the one he wrote in analogous bar 3 was enough. Fontana, adding the fingering in EE, included both the authentic indications and his own alternative solution.
