The b1 note on the 5th quaver in the bottom voice (our main text) is written in A and confirmed in parts of oboes and clarinets in Morch. GE1 most probably has erroneous c2 here, which, in the proofreading of FE (→EE), was replaced with an e1-c2 sixth. It is very likely that the proofreading was introduced by Chopin himself; however, it does not prove that he wanted to change the version written in ½A in this way – it could have been an ad hoc correction of the erroneous version of GE1. In this situation, we consider the less pianistically convenient version of FE, in which the consistent harmonic sequence in ½A (cf. the previous bar) was distorted, to be only a variant. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |

The omission of in FE (→EE) could have been a result of Chopin's proofreading, and it was almost certainly accepted by him. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

The dashes marking the range of cresc. are led in A only to just after the middle of bar 194. However, Chopin most probably meant a crescendo to in bar 195, which was reproduced accurately in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |

The indication in A is written only before the semiquaver, hence after the 1st chord in the bar. It is compliant with indications of Morch and it is most probably compatible with Chopin's intention. Moving the sign to the beginning of the bar is almost certainly an arbitrary decision of the engraver of GE, by the way justified, since some of Chopin indications placed in a similar way are to be interpreted as valid exactly from the beginning of the bar. Chopin most probably removed while proofreading FE (→EE). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |
