In the main text we give a pair of hairpins introduced probably by Chopin in FC (→GE). In EE, the sign begins earlier, while the second was overlooked (except for EE3, in which was added according to GE). In A (→FE) this detail – as majority of the dynamic indications in bars 39-53 – was not marked.
