The fingering of the sequence of thirds written in FEH is confirmed by a compliant entry in FES and in the fragment based on the chromatic sequence of minor thirds also by the Chopinesque fingering in the Etude in G category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Annotations in FES , Annotations in FEH |

It is difficult to assign the digits written in FES to a natural fingering. The most likely explanation is that Miss Stirling committed a mistake at the time of writing them in ink on the basis of the Chopinesque indications written in pencil. Taking into account the fingering in the 1st half of the bar, one could suggest two possibilities: the '3' was supposed to be written under the '5' and not after it or the '3' was written by mistake instead of a '4'. We suggest only the second possibility as an acceptable variant, since it is totally compatible with the fingering from the 1st half of the bar. In the main text, we include only the first of the digits written in FES – its authenticity does not raise any doubts; moreover, together with the previous digits, it clarifies the fingering on the 3rd beat of the bar. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Differences in fingering , Annotations in FES , Annotations in FEH |

In the main text, we give the fingering written by Chopin in FES. The entry in FED most probably indicates the same fingering, specifying its most characteristic fragment. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Annotations in FED , Annotations in FES |
