In this place, Fontana faithfully reproduced the long grace note of A, which was, however, distorted in GE1. The mistake was rectified in GE2 (→GE3) by changing the crotchet to a common short grace note. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions |

Shortening the rhythmic value of c1 in GE was most probably motivated by the intention to make this bar consistent with the version of b. 4, which was considered to be more justified. Consequently, both bars in GE contain the wrong text. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |

The inaccurately written (too low) 1st quaver in the 2nd half of the bar looks like F in A, and it was reproduced as such in FC (→GE1). The fact that Chopin must have meant G is evidenced both by the harmonic context (confirmed by analogous b. 32) and the common Chopinesque manner of writing notes under the 1st line clearly lower and so that they do not touch the line. The mistake of GE1 was corrected in GE2 (→GE3). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Inaccurate note pitch in A , Errors repeated in GE |

The e1 semibreves in b. 17 and 19 fill entire bars in A – they are dotted and, in accordance with the Chopinesque habit, placed close to the middle of the bar (cf., e.g. the Prelude No. 15 in D Major, b. 84-85). In FC (→GE) the latter is not provided with a dot, while in GE – both are not. It is Fontana's oversight and a standardizing revision or another oversight in GE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Inaccuracies in FC |
