No indications in sources

[Cor.] i [pizz.] suggested by the editors

In the sources, the fragments that are performed without solo piano in the orchestral version do not contain any indications concerning the instrumentation in the version for solo piano. In b. 1 and 15, in which an indication of an authentic instrumentation concept could be inspiring for the pianist, we add these indications in the main text based on the original orchestral voices. It is compliant with the custom adopted in the first editions of all the remaining pieces with orchestra composed by Chopin, which is also confirmed by the preserved autographs of the Variations, Op. 2, the Krakowiak, Op. 14 and the Concerto in F Minor, Op. 21 (e.g. in the 2nd mov., b. 2-5).
