b. 85-92

composition: Op. 64 No 1, Waltz in D♭ major

..

In A the bars are marked in an abbreviated manner as repetition of bars 13-20. Chopin, as usually, used numerated empty bars, however, he introduced dynamic indications. The engraver of FE did not understand or ignored this, as initially he took into consideration only the signs in three last bars, furthermore with a mistake – see the adjacent note in this bar and in bars 87-92.

Due to the notation with the use of Dal Segno, in the presentation autographs there is no text on this page. Due to the reasons discussed in the characterization of As, we write out the reprise with notes until the end of the text of this source in bar 108.

b. 97-119

composition: Op. 64 No 1, Waltz in D♭ major

..

In A bars 97-107 and 113-119 are written in an abbreviated manner as repetition of bars 25-35 and 25-31 respectively. Chopin used empty bars, provided with subsequent letters of alphabet, however, he introduced a dynamic hairpin. In the first section it coincides exactly with the one present in bars 25-53, yet in the second it does not. The engraver of FE did not understand it or ignored it, as he did not include the signs that were written here – see bars 113-116 and 117-118.
