In Atut, one can see traces of corrections (erasures), as a result of which some places were spilled with ink, so that it is unclear what is actually written on the top stave. However, since the clearly visible elements perfectly correspond to the orchestral part of FEorch (→GEorch), it is this version that we adopt as the text of Atut. In turn, the text of the editions, clearly different, does not bear traces of corrections in print in FE, which, however, does not mean that there were none – adding an element, e.g. a note, did not have to leave any trace. According to us, the following scenario is likely, among other things – the engraver of FE overlooked the dotted a minim on the bottom stave, which was corrected by Chopin, who added an a crotchet on the 3rd beat of the bar. Both source versions can be considered intended by Chopin. Then again, taking into account the probably most reliable elements of both versions – playing a on the 1st and 3rd beats of the bar, in the main text we suggest a version including both. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors in FE , Corrections in A , Errors resulting from corrections , Authentic corrections of FE |

The 3rd and 4th semiquavers of the bar were originally written in FE a third lower. The traces of corrections of this mistake are clearly visible in the copies of FE. category imprint: Source & stylistic information issues: Terzverschreibung error , Authentic corrections of FE |

In FE, the visible traces of proofreading in bars 197, 199 and 201 (as well as 556) show that Chopin changed the rhythmic values of the 2nd and 3rd notes – in the removed version, the 2nd note was a semiquaver, whereas the third one – a demisemiquaver. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Authentic corrections of FE , Inserted rest |
