GE1 is based on FC, Chopin took no part in its preparation. In the entire Op. 28 GE1 contains many adjustments and errors – see Prelude in C no. 1. There are copies of GE1 which have differing covers, and the edition was also published in a version of 4 fascicules containing 6 preludes each.
In this Prelude the text of the basis was generally reproduced without changes, including the mistake in b. 11. The awkward and unclear manner in which the chord at the beginning of b. 12 was written attracts attention.
