In A, the gruppetto written with small quavers fills the 3rd crotchet of the bar. In GE (→FE→EE), small notes started more or less one quaver earlier, which may suggest an erroneous rhythmic layout of the gruppetto. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , Inaccuracies in A |

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 |

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 A the only raising d to d appears in the 1st half of bar 153. Five out of seven necessary signs were added already in GE1 (only two naturals before d2 in bars 152-153 were overlooked), which, taking into account the clarity of the situation, possibly did not require Chopin's participation (although it could have been also him that noticed the missing signs). EE and GE2 have the correct text. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Omission of current key accidentals , Last key signature sign , Inaccuracies in A |

In ½A Chopin would try to avoid writing on the cello stave, as a result of which he wrote both signs before respective bass notes. It also contributed to an earlier placement of the sign, with respect to analogous bar 152, which in GE1 (→FE) was moved even closer to the beginning of the bar. EE and GE2 introduced some changes in the placement of the signs too (GE2 after A). In the main text we give an interpretation of the notation of A compliant with bar 152. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in A |
