The accent in A is much shorter than the first sign in this bar. In GE both signs are almost identical - both have the form of short hairpins and look like long accents. In FE the second sign was omitted, and EE has an ordinary accent instead. The consistency of the version of EE with the notation of A should be treated as a happy coincidence, as that edition definitely had no access to the manuscript. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE |

When correcting FE (→EE), Chopin added accents under bass notes in the middle of each of those bars. In EE, a vertical accent was used in bar 40, which is characteristic for that edition. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE , Authentic post-publication changes and variants |

In A cresc. begins in bar 40 and reaches the end of bar 44. In GE the dashes are missing from bars 43-44, which is certainly a mistake, as Chopin reintroduced them in the proofing of FE (→EE). Moreover, in the same proofing he moved the beginning of the cresc. to bar 41. In EE the indication is written out in full, broken into syllables in bars 41-43. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , Authentic corrections of FE |

To highlight bass notes, in A Chopin used three signs mid-bar in all those bars. In GE, the first sign was omitted, most probably by accident. In the proofing of FE Chopin removed the remaining two, adding instead an accent under each 1st note of each figure - the total of 6 signs. In EE, some of them were changed into vertical accents. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , Authentic corrections of FE |
