The irregular notation of GE is nevertheless clear and most probably authentic which is why we give it in the main text. We also regard Chopin's intervention during the proofreading of FE as a very unlikely explanation of the lack of bar line in FE (→EE). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: FE revisions |

The rhythm notation in GE, in which the rhythmic values of both marked voices of the R.H. add up to a dotted minim written in the L.H., is formally correct and makes musical and pianistic sense. There is no reason to doubt its compliance with [A]. Adding in FE (→EE1→EE2) of the dots extending the octave a1-a2 is most probably the engraver's fault, as he failed to grasp that the minim d sharp 2 was supposed to sound on the 3rd beat of the bar together with g sharp1-f sharp2-g sharp2. The version of EE3, clearly erroneous, could have originated as a result of an unfinished attempt to restore the version of GE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , FE revisions |
