In A (→GE) a is missing before the 8th semiquaver in the L.H. (d1). In turn, Chopin repeated a before b1 in the L.H. at the end of the bar. FE removed the second sign, yet did not add the first one. EE includes the fully correct notation. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Accidentals in different octaves , Cautionary accidentals , FE revisions |

Before the penultimate note in A (→GE1→FE) there is no accidental specifying whether it is to be f2, in accordance with the figuration's logic, or f2, in accordance with the orthographic rules. In this kind of figures, transferred by an octave, Chopin would often omit repetitions of accidentals, considering them to be obvious. The fact that he heard f2 here is proved by cautionary naturals before the f1-f2 octave in the next bar, added in the proofreading of FE (→EE), most probably by Chopin. In this situation, in the main text we adopt the version with f2. It is also in EE, in which a was probably added after having taken into account cautionary naturals (cf. bar 171). GE2 opted for the version with f2, adding a before it. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in A |

None of the sources includes the correct notation of accidentals, although omissions do not impede the interpretation. In A there is no raising d1 to d1 on the 4th quaver (it is also absent before the 7th quaver) and d2 to d2 at the end of the group of demisemiquavers. In GE (→FE) the last sign was added and a before d on the 6th quaver was repeated, whereas GE2 removed the superfluous before the second b2. EE is closest to the correct notation, in which the only inaccuracy, perhaps resulting from a different approach to such situations, is a missing before d1 on the 7th quaver – a already appeared in this bar before a note at this pitch, yet in another clef (on the 4th quaver). category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions |

In A (→GE→FE) there is no raising d2 to d2. The patent inaccuracy was corrected in EE, adding also a cautionary before c2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Accidentals in different octaves , Omission of current key accidentals , Inaccuracies in A |

In the majority of the sources, the raising d2 to d2 is not before the note but 7 notes earlier, before d3 written at the same pitch, which in that time was generally considered to be enough. Strictly speaking, the sign is not necessary there at all, since d3 written at the pitch of d2 is already on the 4th note of the roulade – this observation most probably made the reviser of GE2 remove the sign before the second d3. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions , Cautionary accidentals |
