In the main text we give the fingering in bar 17, added by Chopin in a proofreading of FE (→GE). In EE Fontana added similar indications also at the beginning of adjacent bars. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |

The version of A is certainly earlier and was changed by Chopin in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). Cf. bar 18, in which this rhythm of harmonic changes was present from the beginning. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

The pedalling in A is written rather at random – only the marks in bars 17 and 21 and the whole-bar long pedalling in bars 19-20. In the main text we give the indications of the version completed by Chopin in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of FE , No pedal release mark , Inaccuracies in A |

In A Chopin omitted the staccato mark in the middle of bar 17, probably due to corrections. We consider the wedge added in a proofreading of FE (→GE1,EE) to be a binding indication of Chopin's intention in this respect. In GE2 (→GE3→GE4) the wedge was replaced with a dot. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE , Wedges |

In A there is no lowering a1 to a1 in the chord on the 2nd quaver of the bar. It is a patent error, comprehensible when we realise that first Chopin wrote the part of the R.H., probably in a half-bar long fragments, and then he wrote the part of the L.H. At the moment of writing the discussed chord, a as an element of the prevailing harmony was already grounded in his awareness. The accidental was added in FE (→GE,EE). category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Accidentals in different octaves , Errors of A , Authentic corrections of FE |
