In AsI there are two semiquavers at the end of the bar in the first record (b. 182), whereas the second one (b. 182') includes a dotted rhythm, compliant with the versions of the remaining sources. The respective variants are included in the note below. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Main-line changes , Dotted or even rhythm |

The second record of this bar in AsI (b. 182') most probably contains two versions. We consider the first one, written in normal, clear script, to be the principal one. The only difference between this version and the final one is the presence of semiquavers instead of dotted rhythm on the 2nd quaver in the bar. Chopin then complemented this record with a draft of a version in which the rhythm was significantly enriched; we present a possible interpretation thereof as an alternative version. As we can see, Chopin did not use this idea while preparing the Variations for print; however, we can find similar figures in b. 180, 192 and 196 of the final version. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Dotted or even rhythm |

Chopin diversified the L.H. figuration in terms of rhythm and articulation in A (→GE→FE,EE,FESB). The idea must have been conceived before the place was written down in A, since there are no traces of corrections. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Accompaniment changes , Dotted or even rhythm |

In AsI the rhythm on the 2nd quaver in bars 242 and 244 – two semiquavers – in the piano reduction is compliant with the parts of the individual instruments. In A (→GE→FE,EE,FESB) Chopin replaced the semiquavers with dotted rhythms; however, he left the orchestral part unchanged. The change is undoubtedly final. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Dotted or even rhythm |
