As has no performance markings, including the pedalling. The absence of markings in CGS might result from careless writing or lack of space. category imprint: Differences between sources |

In an earlier version of As, two versions of the ending of these bars – one- and two-note – were presented in reverse order. The crossings-out visible in As suggest that Chopin initially wrote there more complex figures, comprising three or even four notes. The rhythmic variants at the end of b. 19 – see the note on b. 11 and 19. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Main-line changes |

Instead of a slur over the entire phrase in b. 13-19, As includes only a half-bar slur in b. 18. The appearance of a slur in this exact place can be related to the draft, incomplete nature of the manuscript; however, it is likely that Chopin's first impulse was to write down this group of quavers as a quintuplet, yet he changed the concept still before writing a digit '5' under the slur (irregular groups were generally marked by Chopin with a slur and a digit). category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information |

The absence of pedal markings in As and CGS – see the note in bar 17. The earlier placement of the sign in FE1 is certainly due to an inapt interpretation of A wherein the letter 'p' actually starts already under the first quaver. The inaccuracy was corrected in FE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , FE revisions |
