Recording by Perahia
This etude conveys a state of frenzy during multiple sections. Though much of the emphasis of the piece is on the right hand (as it is playing sixteenth notes ascending and descending during the entirety of the piece), the melody is actually in the left hand. Referring to the notated score (which hopefully wasn't edited, etc.), Chopin makes sure that the pianist is specifically emphasizing each beat in a given measure. This may be one of the outcomes that Chopin hoped for in this piece, to get the pianist to emphasize each beat, even though there are a lot of notes going at once.
