b. 76
According to us, the first half of the bar has only one authentic version, written in [A] and conveyed by EE and FESch. The versions of GC and FE1, hence sources based on [A], were probably a result of its misinterpretation by the copyist and the engraver of FE. Chopin restored the correct text, by amending the mistake in FE2 and FESch and – most probably – in the base text to EE. The versions of FE3 and FE4 are most probably a result of mistakes at the time of proofreading FE2 and FE3 respectively.
