88 in A

84 in FE (→GE,EE)

..

Chopin changed the prescribed tempo of the Etude twice: in A he deleted Presto and wrote Vivace, while in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE), he slightly reduced the metronome tempo. Cf. changes of a similar nature in the Etudes in E major, No. 3 and C minor, No. 12.

Fingering in A

FE (→GE)

..

In the main text we give the fingering in the R.H. written by Chopin in A and then completed in a proofreading of FE (→GE). In EE the fingering was carefully completed by Fontana, also in the L.H.

b. 3

composition: Op. 10 No 7, Etude in C major

f1-g1 in A

f1-b1 in FE (→GE,EE)

..

The  f1-g1 second in A is most probably the original version of the 3rd semiquaver. In analogous bar 36 Chopin changed it to an f1-bfourth already in A. The traces of corrections are also visible in bar 3, yet the  f1-athird was removed, probably written by mistake. In bar 11, in which the 1st phrase appears one octave higher, the f2-b2 fourth is immediately written in A

c repeated in A

c tied in FE (→GE,EE)

..

The tie sustaining c was added in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE), undoubtedly by Chopin (he introduced an identical addition in analogous bar 36).
