In the main text we provide the indication concerning instrumentation written as a full word, as it is in A. In GE (→EE,FESB) the Fl. abbreviation was used, which we do not regard as an independent variant. The absence of the indication in FE could be attributed to the changes entered into the basis for this edition – see the adjacent note. The possibility that Chopin could have omitted this piece of information on purpose is less likely – although in the version of FE the bottom voice of the R.H. octaves does not correspond to any instrumental part, the top voice remains an equivalent of the flutes. One can even assume that this indication is all the more justified, since in this version it was the flute voice that was reinforced at the expense of the other instruments that were not included in the piano reduction. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Errors resulting from corrections , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |

Both the absence of the m.s. indication in FE and it having been placed too early in FESB must be mistakes. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , |

AsI includes different dynamic indications here, describing an earlier concept, changed in the stage of writing A. We move the mark in bar 364 between the staves, since it certainly concerns both parts and was written over the top stave due to lack of space between the staves. In GE1 the hairpin was slightly widened or moved, generally adjusting it to individual beats. This notation was repeated in the remaining editions, in the case of FE with a mistake, while in the case of GE3 with a further shift. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors in FE , Scope of dynamic hairpins , GE revisions |

The version of FE1 is a mistake by the engraver, as evidenced by the compliant text of the remaining sources, including FE2, in which the mistake was corrected, probably at Chopin's request. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Authentic corrections of FE |
