  b. 422

In the sources, the cautionary  at the beginning of the bar is before B in the bass, yet it is absent before bin the R.H., where it is more justified. It seems that Chopin did not combine these two elements:

  • the sign in the R.H. did not seem to be necessary, same as the  returning g2 on the 3rd beat of this bar was overlooked – Chopin heard and wrote both voices independently.
  • the sign in the L.H. was copied while correcting this note from the original d, which makes it a momentum error – the correction is proved by a visible deletion of this note (see also corrections in analogous bars 461-462).

In the main text we remove the  in the L.H. and add it in the R.H.
