As before, in the main text we give a sixth, introduced by Chopin instead of a three-note chord while proofreading FE. In this bar, it is also AsI that provides the alternative L.H. part (featuring the three-note chord of the initial version). In this manuscript, a three-note chord – D-F-B – is also on the 4th quaver; however, F was eventually removed. See also the note in the next bar. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information |

As in b. 149, in the manuscripts the accidentals restoring c(1) and B (b) at the end of the bar are missing. The mistake was corrected only in FE and yet only partly by adding flats to the last demisemiquaver. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Omissions to cancel alteration , Errors of A , Authentic corrections of FE , Errors repeated in GE , Errors repeated in FE , Errors repeated in EE |

Chopin added the mordent over the 1st note while proofreading FE. An ornament – , which is often tantamount to in Chopin's works – is also in the flute part in AsI. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE , Main-line changes |

The version of AsI fairly corresponds to the orchestral version, in which the 2nd and 3rd quavers are almost (in AsI) or completely (in the printed voices) identical, as far as the pitch is concerned. It was also in A (→GE→EE,FESB) that Chopin only complemented the R.H. chords. The proofreading of FE – undoubtedly Chopinesque – brought about a major change, and this is the version (the latest one) we give in the main text. An alternative proposal, analogous to the endings of Variation I and Variation III, takes into account a possible misunderstanding in implementing the proofreading corrections. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Accompaniment changes , Authentic corrections of FE , Main-line changes |

In the main text we give a version with e1 repeated at the end of the bar, introduced almost certainly by Chopin in the stage of proofreading FE. At the same time, we add a dot prolonging the a1 semiquaver, since the different values of the components of the a1-d2 fourth, neither musically nor pianistically justified, may be a result of inaccurately implemented proofreading corrections. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions , Accompaniment changes , Authentic corrections of FE |
