Rest in solo part in AsI

Chord in AsI, later version

Unwritten rest in A (→GEFE,EE)

At the end of the later version of the orchestral introduction added to AsI, there is also the 1st bar of the solo piano part, which differs in detail from both the final and the original version, written in the main sequence of #ApI. In particular, at the beginning of the bar there is a R.H. crotchet chord, which we cite as evidence of Chopin's hesitation – this chord is present neither in the earlier version of #ApI nor in the latest version, prepared for printing.
