A1 is devoid of dynamic hairpins and accents in b. 5-18, which is a result of the working nature of this autograph. To the main text we adopt a mark that was an attempt to reconstruct [A2] on the basis of its two representations in CJ and CK. However, the interpretation of both is subject to some uncertainty due to the use of abridged notation of the L.H. part and in CJ also due to the lack of synchronisation in the notation of the parts of both hands. Consequently, the versions of both copies, and even the interpretation of CK given in CB, may be considered a potentially accurate interpretation of Chopin's intention. The absence of the mark in EL is probably a mistake. category imprint: Differences between sources |

It is difficult to interpret the mark in CJ – it has uneven arms, as a result of which it is uncertain when it should begin, while its ending falls within the 2nd half of the bar, written using abridged notation, which hampers the estimation of its range. Moreover, the absence of the mark in the remaining sources, and particularly in CK, which is based on the same source, suggests that it could have been entered by mistake – the first halves of b. 8-9 are graphically very similar, which could have confused the copyist. According to us, assuming that the mark was present in [A2], we consider a long accent to be the most likely interpretation. Due to the described doubts, in the main text we give this accent in a variant form. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Scope of dynamic hairpins , Inaccuracies in JC |
