  b. 137-138

The long accent in bar 137 is Chopin's well thought-out decision – visible traces of corrections (erasures) suggest that the composer initially wrote a  mark leading to the chord in the next bar. The orchestral parts are also provided with an accent in bar 138 (violins and cellos) or indeed a  (double-basses).
