The later start of the slur could have been introduced by Chopin in the proofreading of GE1 (→FE→EE) – cf. other motifs of this theme with identical rhythm, e.g. in bars 3 and 25. However, in the main text we start the slur from the 1st note of the bar, in accordance with A, since the authenticity of the version of GE1 is uncertain. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of GE , Corrected slurs of Op. 21 in GE1 |

The missing pedalling in bars 4 and 28 seems to be an inaccuracy of notation. In the first two bars, Chopin characteristically diversifies the performance – with or without pedal – depending on whether the crotchets creating a spread chord can be held with hand or not. It is possible that he considered the use of the same pedalling two bars further to be obvious (cf. the adjacent note). In the recapitulation (bars 325-336), respective bars appear twice (bars 328 and 336), both times with pedalling.

The version of GE1 (→FE) generally indicates the same performance as the version of A – the f1 crotchet in the last chord in bar 5 is not tied, hence it is to be played, whereas it is the minim in bar 6 that is to be sustained. This kind of unclear notation must be a mistake, yet it is uncertain whether the mistake was committed at the time of engraving the text of A or at the time of implementing the proofreading ordered by Chopin. If we assume that only a part of the ordered corrections was implemented – a dot extending the minim in bar 5 and a longer tie were added, whereas f1 was not removed from the chord on the 3rd crotchet of the bar – the aim of a possible proofreading could have been the version given in EE. In the face of the above doubts, in the main text we present the correct text of A, whose authenticity is unquestionable. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Placement of markings , Errors in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of GE , Partial corrections |
