b. 17-18

composition: Op. 25 No 11, Etude in A minor

Arpeggio sign in bar 18 in GC (→GE) & EE1 (→EE2)

Arpeggio sign in bar 17 in FE

Both signs suggested by the editors

..

It is hard to conclude how the difference in the placement of arpeggios occurred. Perhaps Chopin wrote the arpeggio in bar 18 in the base text to EE, from which it was copied to GC, while the sign in bar 17 was added in the proofreading of FE. It probably means that it is the respective chords in both discussed bars and all similar, hence in bars 35-36 (in which arpeggios are not marked at all) and in bars 81-82 (in which FE includes signs in both bars), that should be performed with an arpeggio. Therefore, in the main text we give both signs.

b. 17

composition: Op. 25 No 11, Etude in A minor

Fingering in GC (→GE) & EE

Fingering in FE

Fingering suggested by the editors

..

The fingering in GC is written entirely with Chopin's hand. An identical addition was most probably a part of the base text to EE. In turn, in the base text to FE or proofreading of this edition, the same fingering was marked with a different set of numerals. In the main text we give slightly more accurate indications of GC (→GE) and EE, completed with the only numeral not included in these sources, yet printed in FE.

b. 17

composition: Op. 25 No 11, Etude in A minor

..

The too early placed ending of the octave sign makes the 4th semiquaver of the 2nd half of the bar in FE sound as b1 instead of b2.

b. 20-22

composition: Op. 25 No 11, Etude in A minor

No marks in GC, FE & EE

Two dots in GE1

Dot in GE2 (→GE3)

..

GE added staccato dots at the beginning of bars 20 and 22 – both in GE1, only the second one in GE2 (→GE3).

b. 21

composition: Op. 25 No 11, Etude in A minor

Slur over motif in GC (→GE)

Slur over triplet in FE & EE

..

The longer slur in GC (→GE) is a result of correction written with Chopin's hand.
