b. 28-38

composition: Op. 28 No. 22, Prelude in G minor

più animato - - in bars 30-38 in A & FE2 (→EE)

più animato in bars 28-31 in FC

più animato - - in bars 30-33 in FE1

 No indication in GE

..

It is unclear what made Fontana start writing più animato as early as in b. 28, hence 2 bars earlier than in A, or why the indication was not included in GE. Moreover, Fontana overlooked the dashes marking the range of the indication. In FE1 the dashes were led only to the end of b. 33, the last in the line, which was corrected in FE2 (→EE). Chopin precisely determined that the more animated fragment should end in b. 38 – in A the dash written in b. 39 was crossed out. Chopin also crossed out sempre before più animato.
