b. 41

composition: Op. 25 No 1, Etude in A♭ major

Fingering written into FES

No teaching fingering

..

In the main text, we consider the fingering digit written in FES, coming probably from Chopin.

b. 41-48

composition: Op. 25 No 1, Etude in A♭ major

..

In CDP, there are no slurs concerning the semiquavers until the end of the Etude. We do not comment this fact in further notes concerning slurring.

b. 41-42

composition: Op. 25 No 1, Etude in A♭ major

Continuous slur in AI, A (→GE) & FE

Two slurs in EE

..

According to us, the division of the slur in EE is most probably a result of misunderstanding Chopin's intention by the copyist or the engraver (in A, bar 42 opens a new line of the text, which contributes to inaccuracies in the notation of slurs).

b. 42-43

composition: Op. 25 No 1, Etude in A♭ major

Accents in AI

Big noteheads in A (→GE), FE & EE1

Big noteheads & accents in EE2 (→EE3)

..

Eventually, Chopin marked the emphasising of the bottom notes of the figuration, doubling the melody, indicated in AI with accents, with bigger note heads. Convergence with the accents of EE2 (→EE3), added undoubtedly by the reviser (cf. bars 40-41), is accidental.
