The bottom note of the second chord in the R.H. was certainly corrected in GC from d1 to e1. It is hard to state clearly whether it is Gutmann's own correction or whether it was Chopin that noticed and corrected the wrong pitch while reviewing GC. Similar ambiguities resulting from corrected pitches of some notes appear repeatedly in the entire Ballade, yet in the majority of cases it is possible to determine what the original pitch was and to which one it was corrected. In some places the ambiguous pitch of a note in GC was misinterpreted and copied to GE.
