b. 59-60

composition: WN 37, Lento con gran espressione

No marks in A1 & EL

Accent in bar 60 in CJ

Accent in bar 59 in CK

2 accents in CB

2 long accents, our alternative suggestion

..

Since both CJ and CK are based on [A2], their differing versions cannot be true at the same time. However, there are no grounds to consider one of them to be more likely than the other. According to us, it is also likely that according to Chopin's intention, it was both minims that were supposed to be accented – it could have been Chopin himself that overlooked it in [A2] or both copyists at the same time. This version was implemented in CB, and we suggest it in the main text. As an alternative solution we suggest two long accents, whose application in this context – long notes – is closer to the Chopinesque practices concerning the choice of accents.

  in A1

No signs in CJ, CK (→CB) & EL

..

In A1 the figures written in small quavers are provided with pairs of   dynamic hairpins. In (→CJ,CKCB) and EL Chopin replaced it with the indications delicato and delicatiss., emphasising their lyrical nature, requiring a different kind of performance.

b. 60

composition: WN 37, Lento con gran espressione

5 staccato dots in A1

6 dots in CJ

No marks in CK (→CB) & EL

..

In A1 the dot concerning f2 may be under the number 13. The absence of dots in CK (→CB) and EL is most probably Kolberg's oversight.
