Wedges in A

Dots in FE (→GE,EE)

The staccato dots in bars 1-3, 9-11 and 13-15, added in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE), are an element of Chopin's comprehensive elaboration of the performance markings of the first section of the Etude. In A there are only four wedges at the beginning of bar 2 and analog. See also the remark concerning bars 5-6.
