In the main text we suggest a variant solution, as the absence of in A may be a result of Chopin's uncertainty about the place where the pedal's release should be marked, whereas the authenticity of the addition performed in FE is not entirely sure. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

In bars 147-148 and 151-152 we suggest a hairpin in the main text, in accordance with the notation of A in analogous bars 3-8 – see the note to bars 19-24. The signs added in bars 147-148 in the proofreading of FE (→GE,EE) – probably on Chopin's request – are clearly longer, yet there is no certainty that they were reproduced in full accordance with his intention (inaccuracies in this respect were very frequent and even Chopin himself could have been influenced by the longer signs visible in analogous bars on this page). The longer signs can be, however, considered to be an equal alternative to our suggestion in all four bars. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Scope of dynamic hairpins , Authentic corrections of FE |

The g1 crotchet, struck in bar 159 and sustained as a minim in bar 160, was added by Chopin in the last proofreading of FE (→EE). This kind of diversification of subsequent appearances of repeating musical ideas belonged to Chopin's favourite composer tricks. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

Same as in bar 32, Chopin introduced the change of c to C in the last phase of proofreading of FE (→EE). category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Accompaniment changes , Authentic corrections of FE , Bass register changes |

The absence of the sign in A is almost certainly a mistake – in analogous bar 32 a respective sign is written. The addition of a in FE may be attributed to Chopin's proofreading, although the placement of the sign – under the rest and not after it, as in bar 32 – raises certain doubts, as far as the accuracy of reproducing the composer's intention is concerned. In the main text, we stick to the notation of A in bar 32. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors of A , Authentic corrections of FE |
