Semiquavers b3 & b2 in AsI, A & GE3

Quavers in GE1 (→FE,EE,GE2FESB)

..

The version of the majority of the editions must be a consequence of a mistake by the engraver of GE1, who omitted here staccato marks as well. The missing semiquaver beams were added in GE3. A similar situation is to be found in bar 329.

No fingering in A (→GE1FE,EE)

Fingering in GE2 (→GE3,FESB)

..

The fingering added in GE2 (→GE3,FESB), natural in this place, most probably, however, does not come from Chopin – see bars 55-56.

b. 324-325

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

As in bars 321-322, Chopin did not write in A accidentals to the last semiquaver of each beat of these bars. All necessary accidentals were already added in GE (→FE,EE).

b. 327

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

In GE1 (→FE1,EE1EE2) there are no accidentals to the fifth on the 2nd quaver in the bar, which would result in B-f. The oversight was corrected in GE2 (→GE3,FESB), FE2 and EE3.

Staccato dots in A

Wedges in GE (→FE,EE)

..

As before, all staccato marks used by Chopin, in this case dots, were arbitrarily reproduced in GE as wedges.
In FESB both marks in bar 327 were overlooked; we do not regard this incomplete version as an independent variant.
