5 staccato dots in A

One dot in FE

6 dots in EE & GE2 (→GE3GE4)

Among the five staccato dots, written in A in the L.H. in the 2nd half of bar 93 and on the 1st quaver in bar 94, FE recreated only the first one, whereas GE1 - none. The signs were added in the remaining editions, adding a dot also on the 2nd quaver in bar 94.

We consider the absence of separate staccato dots for the L.H. in A (→FEGE1) to be an inaccuracy – see bars 70-71. The signs were added in EE (inaccurately – the last dot was overlooked) and GE2 (→GE3GE4). In these sources staccato was added also on the first two quavers in bar 95.

b. 95

composition: Op. 26 No 2, Polonaise in E♭ minor

..

Same as in the previous analogous places Chopin removed the staccato dots written in A while proofreading FE1. However, as a result of the inaccurately performed correction, the dots in the 2nd half in bar 95 remained partially visible. GE interpreted the notation correctly, yet in EE these not too visible signs were considered to be valid and, moreover, their counterparts in the part of the L.H. were added.

Pedalling in A & GE2 (→GE3GE4)

No signs in FE

 in bar 106 in GE1 & EE

..

The lack of pedal signs in FE in bars 106-108 is certainly a mistake. The markings – pedalling and also L.H. slurs – are omitted up to the end of the page (till bar 110). All the remaining editions supplemented the pedalling with a  sign in bar 106, but the markings in bars 107-108 were added only in GE2 (→GE3GE4).
