In AI the semiquavers of the bottom voice in the R.H. are marked in the 2nd half of bar 58 as repetition of the 1st half. The continuation of this part in the next bar is not marked at all, which is certainly an inaccuracy of notation. However, it is not entirely clear how this continuation was supposed to look like in Chopin's intention, as one can imagine a slightly different addition to the versions of the top voice of the R.H. written out with notes (on the top stave) than the one that was included in the final version, e.g. f category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Source & stylistic information issues: Abbreviated notation of A |

Out of four accents in A concerning the g notes, only two are in FE (→GE). At the same time, the accent in bar 58 was placed under the B note in the L.H., which certainly does not follow from the notation of A. It is probably a result of inattention of the engraver of FE, yet the compliance with the parallel change in the layout of beams suggests a possibility of a coordinated action in this respect, hence Chopin's proofreading. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE |

It is unclear whether Chopin wanted to mark the staccato of the quaver after the semiquaver triplet with a dot, as it is in A, or with a wedge, as it is in AI (only in bar 58) and FE (→GE,EE; in EE2 both signs were omitted, while in GE3 in bar 58 there is a dot). In this case, we consider A as the most reliable source. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in EE |

In AI the notation of the part of the R.H. is unclear in this bar. Chopin certainly performed corrections in it, yet it is unclear, which version is the last one. According to us, it is most natural to assume that Chopin strived for the version which he then eventually deemed as the best, while the remaining ones – written out with notes – are earlier: category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Abbreviated notation of A |
