EE1 has no signs in the middle of bar 10 and at the end of bars 15-16. These are probably oversights by the engraver. Only the first one was corrected in EE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in EE |

The ending of the R.H. slur underwent an evolution in A – three versions are written, out of which two were crossed out. It was most probably the longer ending of a continuous slur that was written first: . It is an example of a tenuto-slur, used by Chopin on a number of occasions to emphasise the lingering of the last note encompassed with a slur. Chopin then added a very short ending of the slur over the a1 crotchet and a new slur under the f1-c1 fourth motif, while crossing out the further part of the initial slur: . Eventually, it was also the "fourth" slur that was crossed out, whereas the top one was prolonged with a distinct, thicker line, which reached only the c1 minim, which was repeated in all the remaining sources: . We also see crossed-out slurs in two out of three analogous phrases – in b. 30-31 and 34-35 the initial slurs, separated by a semiquaver rest, were then replaced by Chopin with continuous slurs (only in b. 16-17 a continuous slur was written right away, without corrections). category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A |

To the main text we adopt the notation of the trill with a wavy line, in spite of the fact that in A Chopin wrote only . A comparison of all 6 bars with trills (b. 10, 12, 16, 28, 30 and 34) shows that Chopin considered both types of notation to be equal; he would write a wavy line wherever there was a bigger gap between the notes. It is difficult to say what was Fontana's motivation when he was adding a wavy line after the mark in FC (→GE) here. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions |

In A one can see a crossed-out tie holding the c1 minim to the beginning of the roulade in the next bar. Chopin introduced similar corrections in both analogous places, i.e. b. 18 and 31-32. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A , Main-line changes |

The missing accent in FE (→EE1) is most probably an oversight of the engraver. The mark was added in EE2, probably on the basis of a comparison with GE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE |
