  b. 41

b. legato in FC

ben legato after FE (→EE)

legato in GE

ben legato suggested by the editors

The ben legato indication visible in FE (→EE) under the L.H. part is most probably a Chopinesque explanation of the vague abbreviation b. legato used in FC, which in GE – probably due to uncertainty as to its meaning – was replaced by legato. In the main text we move this indication – in the form used in FE – over the L.H. part, since it is particularly the two top voices in the chords that can be performed legato.
