b. 81-82

composition: Op. 25 No 12, Etude in C minor

In FC – certainly in accordance with [A] – the 2nd, 3rd and 4th groups of semiquavers in the R.H. are written in an abbreviated manner as repetition of the first. Entire bar 82 is also not written with notes. A similar notation was most probably present in all Stichvorlage manuscripts, which probably caused a number of inaccuracies in reproducing Chopin's intention – cf. the notes on accents,  hairpins and slurs.
