b. 244

composition: Op. 42, Waltz in A♭ major

No mark in FE, GE & EE

Wedge in FEG

Our variant suggestion
..

The wedge written by Chopin in FEG was not included in GE, which is most probably a result of the engraver's inattention. As it is also absent in FE and EE, we leave the inclusion of this indication at the discretion of the performer.
