Both authentic notations of the ornament – A and FE (→EE) – mean the same performance. The mistake of GE1 originated from an unrecognised arpeggio sign in the vertical slur, which, at that period of Chopin's life, would increasingly replace the more accurately written signs in the form of a wavy line. The way the slur was added in GE2 caused that the proper sense of the Chopin notation was still not conveyed in this edition.
