b. 125

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

..

There is a  before the 5th quaver in GE, which makes this and the 9th note sound like d. Harmonic changes in such passages can be found in Chopin's works (e.g. in the Etude in C major, Op. 10 No. 1, b. 60 and 64 or in the Etude in C minor, Op. 25 No. 12, b. 42), in this case, however, the authentic pedal markings (and other factors) indicate that one harmony should be continued until the end of the bar. The engraver of GE most probably changed the sharps to naturals a note too early (by mistake).

In the main text we add cautionary flats to b and B1. The former was also added by EE.

b. 132-133

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

..

In these bars, Chopin overlooked in A all necessary flats lowering a1 and a2 to a1 and a2 (in both hands). The accidentals were already added by FE (→GE,EE).

b. 134-135

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

Figuration from c4 in A

Figuration from b3 in FE (→GE,EE)

..

The version introduced at the stage of proofreading FE (→GE,EE), certainly by Chopin, is definitely an improvement – the connection with the previous bar is smoother, while the shape of the applied motif refers to b. 126-129. The notation of A does not include any of the two necessary flats to a3.

b. 137

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

a3 in A

a3 in FE (→GE,EE)

..

It must have been Chopin who removed the natural to the 5th quaver while proofreading FE (→GE,EE). This is the second correction at this point – in A one can see that the next note was also changed, most likely from g3 to f3. Therefore, the last two notes of the first half of the bar were, in chronological order, a3-g3, a3-f3, and a3-f3.
