Verbal indications

b. 18

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

Hairpin from 1st note in FE

Hairpin from 3rd note in GE

 hairpin & cresc. in EE
..

Cresc. between the hairpin in FE (→GE) almost certainly conveys Chopin's notation in [A]. In EE, both indications were separated. A slightly later beginning of the hairpin in GE is most probably an inaccuracy of the engraver.

b. 24-25

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

No marks in FE (→GE)

Dashes in EE
..

EE added dashes between all elements of poco a poco cresc, which cannot be considered unjustified if we take into account considerable gaps between subsequent words. There is a similar situation in bars 28-29.

b. 25-26

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

Dashes in bar 25 in FE (→EE)

No dashes in GE

Dashes up to bar 27 suggested by the editors
..

In FE (→EE), the dashes marking the range of crescendo are present only in bar 25. It must be an inaccuracy, most probably caused by the transition into a new line – marking the range of cresc. on such a short section would not make sense. That conclusion is confirmed by analogous bars 29-30, in which the dashes are led until . In GE, the markings were completely omitted in both analogous places.

b. 27

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

in FE (→EE)

in GE
..

 in GE may be either a random mistake of the engraver or a revision unifying it with the marking in bar 22 (the subsequent mark, in bar 31, was already reproduced correctly, yet this bar is already on the next page of GE).
