In A of this Etude Chopin wrote only the following opus number instead of a title, which certainly does not equal the fact that he wanted to waive the name Etude used in the autographs of other etudes (No. 5-8 and 12). In the main text we give the title and dedication in the undoubtedly authentic version adopted in FE. The extensions of both the title (in GE and EE) and the dedication (in EE) most probably come from the editors. See the Etude in C major, No. 1, bar 1.
