The published version of the last L.H. crotchet, a C-c octave, is most probably a result of a correction, which is revealed by the way it was written down in A – the bottom note is at the same pitch as the three E notes in b. 32-34 (as well as the ledger lines of the three D notes), while the ledger line placed above it differs in the thickness from the adjacent ones, which shows that it was added later. Therefore, it was initially an E-c sixth. In this situation, we consider the correction (performed in all three teaching copies bearing traces of being developed, i.e. FED, FEJ and FES) turning the octave back to a sixth to be Chopin's final decision (probably), presumably taken after multiple trials. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Annotations in FED , Corrections in A , Chopin's hesitations , Annotations in FES , Authentic post-publication changes and variants , Annotations in FEJ |

In A one can see that sharps were crossed out before the outer notes of the R.H. chord. The version with a G major chord seems to be shocking here; perhaps Chopin wrote the accidentals by mistake believing that a new phrase follows immediately the section written down in an abridged manner. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A , Main-line changes |

In A (→FE,FC→GE) the before the 1st R.H. chord is at the pitch of d1. Chopin's patent mistake was rectified in EE; a respective correction is also in FES. The mistake resulted from rhythmic corrections in the parts of both hands that made Chopin cross out the entire bar and rewrite it on the staves below – in the crossed-out version the was at the right pitch. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Chopin's hesitations , Errors resulting from corrections , Terzverschreibung error , Deletions in A , Accidental below/above the note |
