Each of the three source versions of the range of the sign may correspond to Chopin's intention. According to us, the sign has a nature of a long accent, emphasising both the dynamic relation of the delay of d2 and its resolution c2. Therefore, in the main text we give a sign on the basis of FE, which presents this double sense in the clearest manner. The absence of a hairpin in GE is certainly a result of an oversight (cf. the note on the tie). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Scope of dynamic hairpins , Errors in GE |

The original accentuation, which, together with the slurs restores clear, triple grouping of chords after bars 91-92, prevailing in bars 81-90, was changed by Chopin in the proofreading of FE3 (→FE4). The new concept is an evident improvement – it shapes a four-bar-long crescendo wave with distinctly marked two crests and at the same time it delays the return of denser accentuated motifs until the entrance of the final phrase of the exposition in bar 97. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Long accents , Authentic corrections of FE , Inaccuracies in GC |

The accents in GC are of different length, which, considering the similarity of the motifs, is most probably an inaccuracy. In the main text we adopt long accents, which prevail in the notation. All the versions of the editions are most probably a result of an inaccuracy or revision. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE revisions , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE |

The missing accent in bar 223 could be considered to be an inaccuracy of the engraver of FE, if it were not for Chopin proofreading of the analogous fragment of the exposition, in which he removed, among others, the counterpart of the accent (see bars 93-96). On the other hand, the authenticity of three accents of GC does not raise any doubts, whereas the third accent added in EE may come from Chopin. Therefore, in the main text we suggest variant solutions. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE |
