As has already been indicated in bar 17, we consider the missing slurs to be Chopin's oversight. The need for and the range of the slur in the 2nd half of bar 19 seem to be obvious (cf. identical figures in bar 16 and 21); they were added already in EE and GE3. In turn, one could imagine the first two quavers in bar 20 being performed with another articulation – see e.g. similar bar 61; however, the slur encompassing the last 6 quavers in bar 20 rather excludes such a varied articulation. The missing pedal mark on the 1st beat in bar 20 may also be considered an argument for performing the bass note legato. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |

In FE, the part of the L.H. is misaligned with the R.H. in the 2nd half of the bar – the last quaver, f, falls already under the dotted quaver c3. The inaccuracy was corrected in GE and EE, whereas the mark indicating the right synchronization is written in FEH. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Errors in FE , GE revisions , Synchronization markings , Annotations in FEH |

According to us, Fontana's fingering in EE is not based on an authentic fingering in this case – see bars 25-26. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |

The fingering added by Fontana in EE – here and at the end of the previous bar – does not seem to be authentic. In a similar pianistic context in bar 30, Chopin copied the transfer of the hand without changing the fingering, cf. also the Sonata in B minor, op. 35, the 3rd mov., bar 31 and 34. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |

The fingering given in EE is very natural, and it is likely that Chopin imagined the performance of that detail precisely in that way. However, it does not ensure that Fontana disposed of Chopin's indication in that respect. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |
