The fingering digit written in FED most probably comes from Chopin. However, nothing suggests that the different fingering given in EE could have come from him. On the other hand, this is the fingering that was indicated – most probably by Chopin – in FES in a pianistically identical passage in b. 35. Therefore, it seems that the reviser of EE guessed one of the possible Chopinesque fingering versions here. In the main text we suggest a variant solution, including both most probably Chopinesque fingering versions – the one indicated here in FED and in b. 35 in FES. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Annotations in FED |

b. 27-28

The slurring of A in b. 26-27 is ambiguous – the slur in b. 26 (ending the line), led over the notes, certainly suggests that it should be continued, which is, however, not confirmed by the beginning of b. 27, in which only the initial slur is finished (it was crossed out in b. 26), under the notes. The fact that the ending of the bottom slur was not crossed out and that the top one was not continued proves that Chopin did not control the slurs in b. 27 after having introduced the corrections into b. 26. According to us, the aim of those changes was to combine the new slur in b. 26 with a slur running further, until the end of the phrase in b. 31, in accordance with the unequivocal slurring of an analogous phrase in b. 8-13. Therefore, in the main text we suggest one slur over b. 26-31. It seems that such an interpretation is confirmed by the entry in FED – the mark over the 2nd half of b. 27 may indicate that the slur should be prolonged, i.e. it should start earlier, from the tied dotted b1 quaver (consequently, we obtain a notation equivalent to a continuous slur). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , Annotations in FED , Inaccurate slurs in A , Errors of FC , Uncertain slur continuation |

In the main text we give the fingering entered into FED, most probably Chopinesque. An identical fingering was added in EE; in addition, it was marked more accurately. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Annotations in FED |

In the main text we give the fingering of FED, coming from a lesson with Chopin. The fingering given in EE would most probably comply with it if it were not for the mistake in the last given digit, which was almost certainly supposed to mark the 4th, and not the 5th finger (the mistake indicates that the person adding the fingering was used to the "continental" style of notation). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Annotations in FED , Errors in EE |
