b. 44

composition: Op. 26 No 1, Polonaise in C♯ minor

In A (→FE1) Chopin wrote cautionary for d²and d³in the R.H. The signs were removed in FE2 (→GE,EE). According to us, the addition is also unnecessary.

b. 44

composition: Op. 26 No 1, Polonaise in C♯ minor

g²in chord in A (→FE1)

g² in FE2 (→EE) & GE

The version of A (→FE1) – with g² on the 1st quaver – although theoretically possible – is, according to us, most probably erroneous. Anyways, in the proofreading of FE2 (→EE), the from before the 2nd quaver was moved over the first, almost certainly at Chopin's order. The sign was added also in GE, which is most probably an opportune revision of the editor. Cf. bar 76.
