The change of the range and position of the  hairpin in FE (→EE), although minor, is yet important – the mark of FE seems to concern the R.H. bottom voice, which does not result from the Chopinesque notation. According to us, it refers to the R.H. top voice, yet due to the notation without spaces between the great staves, its placement over this voice would be misleading – it could be interpreted as a mark under the L.H. part in b. 119. Taking into account the not entirely precise notation, in the main text we include a  in a variant form.
