The dedication, both in A and in FE (→EEW1→EEW2), determines the same person – baroness Charlotte de Rothschild, Nathaniel's wife. In the main text, we give an expression used in FE, being the official way of presenting a married woman in France. It is unclear why the dedication was left out in GE and EEC – in spite of a collective cover for three (in EEC two) Waltzes, it could have been placed, e.g., on the first page of the note text. In the case of GE, the reason could have been a possible absence of cover in the proof copy of FE, being the basis for GE, since the dedication was placed in FE only on the cover. As does not include either the title or the dedication. The dedication is also absent in AI, although it is known that the autograph was offered to baroness de Rothschild. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions , Dedications , GE revisions |

According to us, the absence of pedalling in this bar in A is a result of Chopin's temporary uncertainty on whether and how to mark it, when the harmony changes on the 3rd beat of the bar. It is the first situation of this kind in the Waltz and the composer temporarily considered, as it seems, to sustain the bass note c category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: GE revisions |

The slur, added in later GE in bar 4 certainly after an authentic slur in analogous bar 20, can be considered to be a justified addition to the version of A and the remaining editions. In the main text, however, we preserve the differentiation between bars 4 and 20 in this detail, as it may suggest a subtle performance nuance. (In As and AI, in which the 2nd and 3rd crotchets are identical, the slurs are absent both in bars 4 and 20.) category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |
