b. 54

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

A wedge in A.

A dot in GE (→FEEE)

..

The sign that was clearly a wedge in A  was replaced with a dot.

b. 54

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

No articulation mark in GE (→FEEE)

A possible wedge in A

..

A trace of the pen visible in A over the third g flat2-b flat2 beginning the second part of the bar may be interpreted as a wedge. However, the sign is so illegible that, following the first editions, we omit it from the text.

b. 55

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

A dot in A (→GE)

No dot in FE (→EE)

..

A missing dot over the 1st semiquaver of the 2nd half of the bar is probably due to oversight of the engraver of FE (→EE).

b. 55

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

..

In GE, due to lack of free space between the staves, the   mark was  placed partly between the highest notes of the left hand. Because of that, in FE that mark was erroneously placed above the left hand and not under the right hand. The location of the hairpins was later corrected, most probably at Chopin's request.

b. 55

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

Without accents in A (→GEFE)

Accents in EE

..

In EE, accents were arbitrarily added at the beginning of the bar and under the first semiquaver of the triplet on the 3rd quaver of the bar. The reason for that revision was probably to make the markings similar to those in analogous bar 15.
