The marking present in FE (→EE) instead of the authentic indication must have resulted from the engraver's carelessness – see the Prelude in E minor no. 14. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , 4/4 or 2/2 |

None of the editions based on manuscripts reproduced all 4 slurs over the pairs of chords in bars 1-2 and 5-6. EE1 overlooked yet 2 out of 3 slurs in FE. The complete set of slurs in EE2 results from a compilation of the slur of EE1 with the slurs reproduced from GE1. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Errors in EE , Errors in GE |

In this bar Chopin again marked the articulation of the chords only over the R.H. part. As the performance cannot differ from the one in b. 13-14, in the main text we add marks also under the L.H. chords. Such a solution was adopted both by FC (→GE) and FE (→EE). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in FE , Wedges , Inaccuracies in 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 |
