First English edition is based on FE1 and was not proofread by Chopin. A number of arbitrary revisions was introduced therein:

  • almost all accents were unified as short
  • all slashed grace notes were written as small semiquavers
  • cresc. written by Chopin on the hairpin was placed separately.
