In bar 60 in A there are visible traces of corrections of the written in this place indication. According to us, Chopin initially wrote smorz. and then transformed it to calando, which seems to be more accurate in this context. Eventually, FE (→GE,EE) has, however, a smorzando, which means that while proofreading FE, Chopin most probably returned to the original concept (however, it is possible that the engraver of FE deciphered the unclear inscription in a different manner than us).
In the entire fragment presented on this page (bars 58-77), AI has significantly less performance indications. Wherever the omission of some of the indications undoubtedly results from the working notation of this autograph, their absence is not considered as an equal version of the discussed place. In practice, it means that if the content of the note does not mention AI, the discussed indication is absent in this autograph.
