It is uncertain why FE (→GE,EE) does not include the expressive markings written in A in bars 2 and 10. Most probably it is a result of the engraver's inaccuracy (haste?), however, even if it was the case, Chopin did not feel the need to complete these indications at the time of proofreading FE, despite the fact that in bar 2 he added a mark in this place. Therefore, respecting the image of the Etude accepted by Chopin for publication, we do not give them in the main text.
