in FE (→EE1)

Quaver in GEEE2 & FED

Quaver & crotchet d, our alternative suggestion

The fact that the version of FE (→EE1) is erroneous is proven by:

  • missing resolution of the eseventh of the ninth chord without prime (from the previous bar) in the piano part, natural in this context;
  • correction of this note to in FED;
  • in the cellos part – situations in which the orchestra part implements a different bass note than the one resulting from the piano part, very rare in Chopin's oeuvre, are generally absent in the Polonaise;

The change of this note to was introduced in GE and – probably on the basis thereof – in EE2.

The issue concerning the extension of this note – see the note above.
