The notation of CK seems to be less reliable due to the densely packed notation. Balakirev limited himself to correcting the patent inaccuracy at the end of the run. As was the case with the slurs, the missing dots in EL are probably a result of an editorial oversight. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Balakirev's revisions , Inaccuracies in CK |

A long accent seems to be more appropriate for a long note, which we suggest as an alternative solution. Due to the densely packed notation of [A2], Chopin could have had problems with marking the desired type of accent clearly. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Long accents |

In the main text we give the beams of the four runs after the concordant notation of A1 and [A2] (→CJ,CK) – semiquavers in b. 57-58 and quavers in b. 59-60. In the remaining sources the notation was arbitrarily standardised – CB features quavers only, whereas EL – semiquavers. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Balakirev's revisions , Revisions in EL |

There is no doubt that the slurs in A1, CJ, CK and EL are supposed to encompass the irregular group of small notes, filling the 2nd half of each of these bars. However, it was not written accurately enough in the manuscripts, as a result of which it is only some of the slurs that actually span from the first to the last note (b. 59 in A1 and 57 in CJ and CK). The remaining ones are shorter, sometimes only one note shorter, but in the extreme case – b. 58 in CJ – the slur encompasses only 12 out of 35 semiquavers. We reproduce these inaccuracies only in the graphic transcriptions of the particular sources. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , Inaccuracies in JC , Inaccuracies in CK |
