The crossings-out and corrections in the part of the L.H. in A make it uncertain whether Chopin wanted to accentuate the minims on the 2nd beat of these bars. An accent is present only in bar 453; moreover, it is placed below a crossed-out minim. However, in analogous bars 461-462, Chopin undoubtedly preserved both accents, in spite of similar corrections. We consider the absence of the mark in bar 454 to be an oversight, hence in the main text we give the version with two accents. The editions did not include the mark in bar 453, which can be regarded as a less likely solution, yet acceptable. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Errors resulting from corrections |

The missing staccato dots in GE1 (→FE→EE) are most probably a mistake, just as the seemingly complementary slurring. The dots were restored in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions |

The absence of a staccato mark in A in bar 454 must be an inaccuracy, corrected already in GE (→FE→EE), where a dot was added. A dot is visible also in bar 453, yet it may also be an inaccuracy, resulting from, e.g. haste – cf. bars 414-415. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Authentic corrections of GE , Wedges |

The notation of the three subsequent accents is unambiguous in A – they are 3 long accents. In spite of this, GE reproduced them as short accents, whereas in FE (→EE) the third of them was overlooked. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE |
