In the main text we give g
2 present in the base source, i.e. FE (→EE). The authenticity of this version is supported both by source arguments – Chopin did not question this note both in the proofreading of FE and in any of the pupil's copies – and stylistic ones – cf. similar passages in other compositions by Chopin, e.g. in the Sonata in B minor, op. 58, 1st mov., bar 19. The f2 note was probably introduced in the proofreading of GE, replacing g2 of the version of FE; however, one does not know whether it was performed by Chopin.
