As in b. 35-36, in A Chopin overlooked some necessary accidentals, mainly in b. 40 – a to d2 and a to e2 in the R.H. and a to e1 and a to d2 in the L.H. (the use of accidentals in b. 39 is not fully codified due to the octave sign, as a result of which the to e3 and the to d2 could be considered superfluous). All necessary accidentals – subject to the situation described in the brackets above – were already added in GE1 (→FE1,EE,GE2→GE3). In EE a to d2 before the 6th semiquaver in b. 39 was also added. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions , FE revisions , Inaccuracies in A |

In the main text we include the staccato marks on the 4th beat of the bar, added in GE (→FE,EE,FESB). It is noteworthy that in A Chopin added the staccato indication after eight semiquavers, which suggests that he considered that the 4th beat of b. 39 (and most probably of b. 35 too), identical to the third one, would naturally "inherit" the articulation markings of the preceding one. Therefore, although the authenticity of the very marks is not entirely certain, the authenticity of the articulation they indicate absolutely is. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of GE |

As in b. 35-36 and 39-40, in the manuscripts Chopin overlooked some of the necessary accidentals, in this case only flats. AsI lacks a to the 14th semiquaver in b. 43 (g2) and to the 10th semiquaver in b. 44 (g), and A lacks a to the 14th semiquaver in b. 43 (g2) and flats to the 8th and 20th semiquavers in b. 44 (g1 and g). All omitted accidentals were already added in GE1, which was repeated in the remaining editions. In the main text, we omit the unnecessary repetition. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Source & stylistic information issues: Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions , Cautionary accidentals , Last key signature sign , Inaccuracies in A |
