Ornaments

b. 656

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Small crotchet in A (→FC→GE1, →FE→EE)

Acciaccatura in GE2 (→GE3)
..

In the main text we give the only authentic notation of the ornament, written in A. However, we accept the notation of GE2 (→GE3), since it almost certainly marks the same performance.

b. 657

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

 without  in A (→FE→EE) & GE2 (→GE3)

with [] suggested by the editors

No  in FC (→GE1)
..

The missing  in FC (→GE1) is most probably an oversight of the copyist (in b. 206, of which the discussed bar is an exact repetition, added in GE2 (→GE3).
The missing  over the mordent must be an inaccuracy of Chopin: see b. 74.
