b. 118

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

E-e in GE

C-c in FE (→EE)

..

In the main text we give the text corrected by Chopin in FE (→EE) – all the sources have versions strictly analogous to b. 94. Likewise in b. 120.

b. 119-122

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

In the main text we do not include the cautionary naturals present in FE (→EE) next to certain F and f quavers, since we are convinced that the F1-F octave at the beginning of each of the discussed bars dissipates any doubts as to the sound of those notes.

Naturals instead of flats before the last demisemiquaver (in both hands) is probably a mistake of the engraver of GE1, repeated in GE2. In turn, in EE we can assume a revision, since an analogous version with c notes is also in b. 98 there.

According to us, the version of FE (→EE) most probably resulted from a misinterpretation of the manuscript – in Chopin's and Fontana's manuscripts it can be difficult to determine whether a chord contains a middle note on a ledger line – cf., e.g. the Etude in A major, Op. 10 No. 10, b. 76, the Prelude in C major, Op. 28 No. 1, b. 34 or the Concerto in F minor, Op. 21, mov. I, b. 109. Repeating two notes of the preceding chord on the 3rd crotchet would be an unnecessary burden to the accompaniment; it does not occur in this section, as a result of which in the main text we follow GE
