Chopin added the grace note in GC (it is written with his hand) and in the proofreading of FE (one can see that there was no space for it). The improvement was also introduced in EE2 (→EE3), most probably on the basis of comparison with FE. In all editions the sign has a form of a slashed, small quaver, which undoubtedly corresponds to the performance of this ornament, however, it is contrary to double – here and in bar 67 – Chopin's own entry in GC. In the main text we give the undoubtedly authentic notation of GC, as in the case of the slashed grace note in FE there it is uncertain whether it actually corresponds to Chopin entry in the proof copy. The issue of cautionary sharps before the grace note and d3 – see the adjacent note. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE , Authentic corrections in GC |

The dim. - - indication could have been added by Chopin in the proofreading of FE, although it cannot be excluded that the addition was added still in the base text (cf. bars 67-69). Similarly in bars 87-89. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

The accent under a1 is only in FE. In GC one can see deletion of this sign, yet other, consistent changes in bars 58-60 and 78-70 prove that Chopin eventually decided to mark – with an accent and slur – the beginning of the phrase of the bottom voice exactly in this place. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

The slur embracing the phrase in the middle voice was added by Chopin most probably in the proofreading of FE. The sign is, however, inaccurately placed – in bar 58, ending a line of the text, the slur begins on the stave, yet its continuation in bars 59-60 is under the stave, which hinders its interpretation. In the analogous place in bars 78-80, the slur is already clearly placed. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations |
