The term "accelerando" is used in #AI instead of dynamic indications. In the editors' opinion, this does not necessarily mean that Chopin did not anticipate dynamic nuances here when writing this score – see the note below. It can also be assumed that the lack of this instruction in the version prepared for publication does not mean giving up agogic freedom when playing this figure – the difference in markings is rather a result of the emphasis placed on a different aspect of execution. Therefore, we do not treat these indications as mutually exclusive.
