The variants are by Chopin.

From the Jan Ekier National Edition.

Those are lovely - it's so nice to be surprised by something new listening to this beatiful but overplayed piece. It's fascinating to think that had you been able to go to a concert to hear Chopin, he could have played this, or more probably something completely different made up in the moment.

good stuff! Wasn't sure about the variants at first but it's actually good to hear some variety when listening to an old super famous piece that's always been performed in the same old identical way.
