The vertical line in the symbol used by Chopin to mark the grupetto indicates that the bottom note of the ornament should be raised (cf. the Nocturne in D
Major, Op. 27 No. 2, b. 7). As augmented seconds are not used in grupetti, it is almost certain that Chopin did not mean g1 to be formally altered to g
1, but wanted to indicate that the bottom note falls at the interval of a minor, and not major second, which results in g
1 as the intended note. FE (→EE) and GE did not reproduce the Chopinesque symbol accurately nor marked that the bottom note should be altered. In the main text we reproduce the Chopinesque notation in a contemporary form.
