  b. 429-432

cresc. - - - - in A

cresc. in GE1 (→FE→EE)

cresc. - - in bar 429 in GE2

Ignored dashes marking the range of cresc. is a frequent inaccuracy of the first Chopinesque editions. The fact that GE2 added dashes only in bar 429 may be explained by an inaccuracy (it is the last bar on the page in GE2 – cf. bars 469-474). However, further dashes may have been thought to be contrary to the   hairpins.
