..

In FED there is an added  before a2 in the chord at the beginning of the bar. We also believe that it is advisable in this place, thus we give it in the main text.

Lack of flats returning e in the last chord in A (→FEGE1,EE3) is certainly Chopin's oversight. The accidentals were added in FED and GE2 (→GE3GE4) and EE4.

c3 with  in A

c3 in FE2, modern notation

..

In the sources there are two versions of the inner note of the 5th quaver:

  •  c3, written in A with a cautionary , which, however, was omitted in FE1 (→GE,EE);
  • c3, which appears only in FE2 and accompanied by , a combination Chopin did not tend to use. Therefore, one can assume a misunderstanding at the time of implementation of a proofreading, which, to a certain extent, undermines the credibility of this version.

The second version is certainly later and as such it should be considered as the main one. In relation to the aforementioned doubts, in the main text we adopt the certainly authentic version with c3.

b. 44-46

composition: Op. 10 No 11, Etude in E♭ major

..

In A in bars 44 and 46 only the first out of four necessary flats lowering d1/2 to d1/2 is included. In FE two missing signs were added, apart from the accidental in the R.H. in bar 46 (which, in turn, was added in FED). In the remaining editions the notation is correct.

We add cautionary  before d2 in bars 45 and 47. The accidentals were already added in GE2 (→GE3GE4) and EE4). The second one is also present in FED.
