  b. 138

e2 repeated in A (→GE)

e2 tied in FE (→EE)

The tie of e2 was added by Chopin in the proofreading of FE (→EE) as one of the three additions in the 2nd half of the bar (cf. notes on pedalling and sempre legato). It is a characteristic Chopin pianistic procedure, ensuring strict legato of a melody led in chords (cf. e.g. the Polonaise in Amajor, Op. 53, bar 97). We suggest this change also in bar 286.
