In this Prelude Chopin generally did not put accidentals before the top notes of broken octaves – see b. 1-4. In the discussed bars, the problem concerns the following notes:
- in b. 14 c2, d
2, d2 and e
2,
- in b. 15 and 17 e
2, d2, f2 and g
2,
- in b. 16 e
2, d2, f2 and b
2,
- in b. 18 e
2, d2, f2 and e
2,
- in b. 19 e
2,
- in b. 21 a
2, b
2 and e
3.
Such a notation is in A (→FC,FE), whereas EE, GE1 and GE2 added the majority of the necessary accidentals (21, 18 and 22 out of necessary 24, respectively).
