b. 125

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

D1 in A (→FC→GE)

D in FE (→EE)
..

The version of FE (→EE) is a result of Chopin's proofreading, hence we give it in the main text. However, the traces of the correction do not allow us to say conclusively whether it was D1 that was being corrected or another erroneous note; therefore, the version of the remaining sources may be considered an equivalent variant.

b. 179-181

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In the main text we add cautionary flats before the E1 and E grace notes in b. 179 and before the D1-D octave in b. 181. The signs in b. 181 were added already in GE, those in b. 179 – in GE2 (→GE3).
There is an identical situation in b. 630-632.
