b. 151-153

 

 

 

At the beginning of the semiquaver passages A includes  in bars 151 and 153 and  in bars 155 and 157. GE preserved the varying indications, although in bar 155  was erroneously given instead of . While proofreading FE (→EE), Chopin changed  to  in bars 151 and 155, and most probably he ordered the same change also in bar 153, in which FE does not have any sign (it is possible that  was removed, yet one forgot to add ). Since in this type of contexts Chopin would often use both signs interchangeably, the proofreading was almost certainly meant to organise the notation and not to change the required performance.
