The absence of a dynamic indication is most probably an oversight of the engraver of FE. The addition of in EE was performed probably on the basis of a comparison with bar 91. In turn, the indication written in FES, in spite of the fact that there are no reasons to question its authenticity, is, however, most probably only an ad hoc lesson comment, correcting the absence of the dynamic indication in FE. Therefore, we do not consider it to be an expression of a general change of the dynamic concept of this introduction. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Errors in FE , Annotations in FES , Authentic post-publication changes and variants |

The fingering digit, written with a quill pen most probably by a pupil, was probably added in place of an entry written in pencil by Chopin. category imprint: Differences between sources |

The version with the a2 grace note present in GE1 (→FE→EE) is almost certainly a mistake, which is confirmed by the correction of this note written in FES. The version of A was restored also in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Errors in FE , Errors in EE , Errors in GE , GE revisions , Annotations in FES |

In FES Chopin wrote a simplified reduction of the recitative's orchestral accompaniment, which can be used while performing this movement solo. The accompaniment is to be played with the L.H. instead of the original part and in few places also the part of the R.H. was completed. In bars 45-47 the notation is most probably inaccurate – the applied abbreviation, when interpreted literally, orders striking the bass in the bottom octave (A1), which is both sonically unjustified and technically uncomfortable (cf. similar inaccuracies in the Etude in A major, Op. 25 No. 1, bars 1-8 and the Nocturne in D major, Op. 27 No. 2, bar 1). After choosing the version with the harmonic accompaniment, it may be necessary to select relevant versions also in bars 45 (pedal), 46 (staccato dots), 47-48 (slurs), 51 (slurs) and 52 (slurs and staccato signs). category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Annotations in FES , Authentic post-publication changes and variants |
