On the last beat of bar 54, the slurs in A embrace the first 7 demisemiquavers only. The editions embraced 8 notes with them (in GE1 in the L.H. the slur erroneously embraces the entire figure and in FE the slur in bar 55 was shortened accordingly). In this case, the inaccuracy is understandable, particularly with regard to the slur of the R.H. that ends between g If in bar 53 the version with harmonic accompaniment was chosen, one of the versions with slurs only in the R.H. is to be selected here. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccurate slurs in A , Errors in GE , GE revisions , FE revisions |

In the main text, we include the layout of the sempre più stretto indication visible in A, in which Chopin corrected the placement of this marking. In subsequent editions, spaces between the words were removed; moreover, all of them overlooked also the dashes combining particular words. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Corrections in A , GE revisions |

One of the slurs beginning in A on the 4th beat of the bar is probably inaccurate; in spite of the fact that in this section of the recitative not all slurs of the R.H. are repeated in the L.H., it does not seem that Chopin would like to have different slurs in each hand in the same fragment. Taking into account the fact that in a similar situation two bars later Chopin led both slurs to the culminant note at the beginning of the bar, in the main text we suggest extending the slur of the R.H. In the editions the slur of the L.H. was shortened and, moreover, on the 2nd beat of the bar only the demisemiquaver group was embraced with a slur and a similar slur was added in the L.H. If in bar 53 the version with harmonic accompaniment was chosen, one of the versions with a slur only in the R.H. is to be selected here. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

A has two slurs on the top stave, with the bottom one (on the 2nd beat of the bar) performing only a rhythmic function – it is a part of the sextuplet's marking. In the main text, we omit this slur (a similar action was taken already in GE2). In GE1 (→FE→EE) the slurs deviate considerably from the notation of A. It is either an arbitrary, far reaching attempt at interpreting it or – which seems to be highly unlikely, yet not impossible – a result of Chopin's proofreading. See also the adjacent note. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

In A both slurs are led to the beginning of bar 65; in spite of this, GE (→FE→EE) embraced only the 4th beat of bar 64 with them. In the main text, we preserve the notation of A. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE |
