The staccato dot written by Chopin in FEG may be ambiguous: it is not known whether it concerns the octave in the R.H. in bar 261 or the octave in the L.H. in the great stave right above it, in bar 256. It may be the reason explaining why the sign was not included in GE1 (→GE2→GE3). The sign included in EE is also not entirely clear – in spite of the fact that it resembles a wedge, it has a dot in its structure. Therefore, it is hard to conclude what was written in Chopin base text to EE; hence to the main text we adopt a staccato dot, written by Chopin's hand in FEG. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of GE , Wedges , Authentic corrections of EE |
