A (→FE) has a cautionary before the 7th L.H. semiquaver, a1. The accidental was omitted in FC (→GE1), however, EE and GE2 have flats there in both the L.H. and R.H. parts. We also include these signs in the main text. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , GE revisions , Cautionary accidentals , Errors of FC |

In the main text, we add – as in bars 9-10 – separate wedges to the :\L.H. octaves. In the discussed bars, this notation also occurs in FE (→EE). The mark in b. 12 was overlooked in FC (→GE), and the other (a wedge in b. 11) was reproduced in GE as a staccato dot. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: GE revisions , FE revisions , Wedges , Errors of FC |

In the main text we reproduce the very precise performance marks for the chord on the 2nd beat of the bar in A: long accents over f4 and the L.H. chord and a staccato dot under f3. The R.H. marks were overlooked both in FC (→GE) and FE1, which is justified to a certain extent, since both marks are poorly visible. The L.H. accent (short) was placed in FE under the chord, as a result of which the R.H. octave is not accented at all. FE2 tried to amend it by adding a long accent under it. Introduction of a vertical accent in EE is an arbitrary decision typical of that publisher – cf. the previous bar. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE revisions , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE , Placement of markings , FE revisions , Errors of FC |

The missing mark must be Fontana's mistake. The crossing-out visible in A proves that Chopin initially entered that mark before the f3-f4 octave. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A , Errors of FC |
