Minim in FC

Tied dotted minim in FE & EE

Minim with rest in GE

The creation of the version of FC may be explained with an oversight of the copyist, who overlooked the dot and tie extending the sound of the d minim. It is also possible that Chopin omitted FC, while adding the sustention of d in the remaining Stichvorlage manuscripts (base texts to FE and EE) – the version of FC would be then the original version. In GE the version was completed with an arbitrary rest (in GE1 two rests were added erroneously).
