In GE the entire first Tutti is written in a font of a normal size, clearly against the notation of A and generally applied rules of publication of solo versions of works with orchestra. Therefore, we consider it a patent mistake, which we reproduce only in the version "transcription." One can wonder why nobody paid attention to it when preparing GE2, generally carefully revised on the basis of A. FE (→EE) did not repeat this error, which seems to be an editorial decision, perhaps consulted with Chopin.
