The sources differ with regard to positioning of the cresc. In A (→GE), this indication is placed within the   mark, in FE and EE – below the hairpins, and additionally it is slightly moved to the right in EE.

b. 38-39

composition: Op. 27 No 2, Nocturne in D♭ major

..

In the L.H. part, the 2nd and the 4th semiquaver of the second half of bar 38 are placed under the second semiquavers of both R.H. triplets in GE. A similar inaccuracy can be found for the 4th and the 6th note of the L.H. in bar 39. The alignment of the notes in A is also inexact, yet this only natural for a hand-written score and does not suggest an erroneous performance. Cf. bars 35-36.

..

A dot extending the c sharp2 in the lower voice is missing from all the sources. The tie sustaining that note leaves no doubt as to Chopin's intentions.

A wedge in A

A dot in GE

Absence of any sign in w FE (→EE)

..

The wedge of A was rendered as a staccato dot in GE. In FE (→EE) the sign was omitted altogether, probably due to the engraver's mistake.
