Four-note chords in A & GE

Three-note chords in FE (→EE)

The version of A, repeated in GE through a proof copy of FE, is the original one. In this version in each bar one is supposed to perform two identical four-note chords (as in the previous bars). In the last proofreading of FE (→EE) Chopin deleted some of the notes, lightening the accompaniment and creating an internal melodic line: g–d1–c1–a– etc.
