The sources differ in notation of the accidentals on the 1st and 4th semiquavers of the last group. Due to the regularity of the figurations, it can be assumed that Chopin was thinking about b
2-d3 and d3-f3. When the group is written without the octave sign, the text does not require any signs and this is the notation we see in FE. In the remaining sources, an octave sign was used (same as in the main text), which leads to the need of making the notation more precise:
- In FC (→GE1) the last third is written at an erroneous pitch, hence the problem concerns only the 1st third, which is not preceded by any sign.
-
In EE1 there are also no signs before the 1st third, in turn, there are sharps before both notes of the last third. It is undoubtedly a mistake, as the
next to d3 makes sense only before the 1st third. In EE2 (→EE3) the concerning d3 was not moved, yet a was added before b2. - GE2 (→GE3) includes the notation compatible with the contemporary standards, adopted also in the main text.
