The dotted rhythm in A is the original version (cf. analogous bar 20), left here by Chopin, perhaps unintentionally. Therefore, the quavers in GE (→FE→EE) may be a result of Chopin's proofreading, although the absence of visible traces of performing changes in print allows us to consider a possible mistake of the engraver. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of GE , Omitted correction of an analogous place |

Same as in bars 177-189, in the main text we give indications – slurs and dots – introduced probably by Chopin in the proofreading of GE (→FE→EE). In A, in this fragment, written already very hastily, slurs are only in bar 353 (over the sixths) and 357 (a whole-bar slur). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of GE |

Both the change introduced in GE1 and the one in FE definitely come from Chopin who was looking for the smartest connection of this bar with the following one, as far as the piano skills and harmony are concerned. At the same time, he most probably wanted to emphasise the chromatic movement of the bass, hence the arbitrary version of EE2 certainly does not correspond to his intention. The last crotchet in bar 368 underwent the same transformation, which excludes a possibility of a mistake in both versions. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Accompaniment changes , Authentic corrections of FE , Authentic corrections of GE |

The first three out of the given versions are certainly authentic and they present an interesting example of Chopin's works on the detail, performed in stages. In EE2, due to the skepticism concerning the correctness of the version of FE and GE1, it was replaced with another one, structured analogously to the majority of the similar bars. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions , Accompaniment changes , Authentic corrections of FE , Authentic corrections of GE |
