According to us, it is most probably the full indication written in A that is the only authentic one, while the omission of its first part in the editions is a mistake of the engraver of FE (→GE,EE) – cf. the adjacent note. However, Chopin might have accepted the indications of the editions in such form (cf. e.g. the Etude in E
major, No. 11). In turn, it is hard to state whether the change in GE4 (→GE5) of con fuoco to con forza is a mistake or revision.
