In AI Chopin continues leading the bass line in octaves. In the published version the section encompassing bars 77-82 includes bass octaves only in bars 77 and 81, as was the case with bars 9-14. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Bass register changes |

Taking into account the fact that in AI each third bar of the thematic eight-bar section (bars 3, 11, 71 and 79) always includes an arpeggio, while in the editions three out of four of these places, it seems almost certain that its absence here in FE resulted from an oversight. Due to the above, we give it directly in the main text. The change of the short grace note to a long one in GE and EEC is a manner of the engravers of these editions – see the further note in this bar. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE , EE inaccuracies |

It is difficult to say whether the shorter slur of AI defines an actual variant of articulation of this motif or – which, according to us, is more likely – whether it is inaccurate or erroneous (e.g. written with bar 81 in mind). The additional, short slur in FE (→GE1,EE) is most probably a mistake, perhaps caused by unclear notation of [A] (e.g. a correction to the rhythm and slurring present in AI two bars later). Its presence next to the longer, undoubtedly correct slur therefore probably resulted from the fact that the engraver did not finish implementing the corrections Chopin introduced while proofreading FE1 (the engraver added the correct slur, but did not remove the erroneous one). The shorter slur was considered erroneous and omitted also in GE2 (→GE3). category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors in FE , Chopin's hesitations , GE revisions , Errors repeated in GE , Errors repeated in EE |
