Fingering

b. 314

Fingering in AsI

No fingering in remaining sources

In the main text we include – on a similar basis as the teaching fingering – the fingering entered into AsI. Cf. bars 298-301.

b. 314

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

Fingering in AsI

Fingering in A (→GE→FE,EE)

Our variant suggestion
..

As in the R.H. part, in the main text we include – in brackets – the fingering of AsI, which is an extended version of the one that Chopin wrote in A (→GE→FE,EE).

b. 323

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

No fingering in A (→GE1→FE,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. 331-332

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

Fingering in AsI

Fingering in A (→GE→FE,EE)

Fingering in FESB

Our variant suggestion
..

In the main text we include – in a variant form – the fingering entered into AsI, complementing the fingering of A. The digit '1' added in FESB on the penultimate semiquaver in bar 331 is either a correct revision or a fortuitous mistake – in this edition there is no staccato mark over this note, which was perhaps interpreted as a digit.
