  b. 19-20

a1 & f1 in chords in GC (→GE1) & FE (→EE1)

a1 (+ cautionary ) & f1 in GE2mar (→GE2) & EE2

No a1 & f1 in chords in FES

The deletions of the top notes of the chords were written in FES most probably by Chopin or on the basis of his indications. It is most probably a facilitation for pianists with small hands, intended to be used at amateur performances. Due to this fact, we do not include this version in the main text. Similar entries are in bars 73-74 and 81-82.

In bar 19 in GE2mar (→GE2) and EE2 a cautionary  before the first a1 was added – cf. the note below.
