b. 1

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt III

funèbre in GC (→GE), FE1 (→FE2→EE) & FE5

No designation in FE3 (→FE4)
..

The fact of removing the programme indication of Marche's character in the proofreading of FE3 (→FE4) can be certainly ascribed to Chopin. The composer replaced it with a neutral tempo indication, Lento. The original indication funèbre was restored, for understandable reasons, in FE5 – the edition was prepared shortly after Chopin's funeral.

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt III

No indication in GC (→GE) & FE1 (→FE2→EE1)

Lento in FE3 (→FE4,FE5) & EE2
..

The indication Lento was added by Chopin in the proofreading of FE3 (→FE4,FE5), as if instead the simultaneously removed funèbre. It was repeated – most probably on the basis of FE4 – also in EE2.
