Crotchets e1e1c1-e1bg, in A

Crotchets e1-a1e1-g1e1bg, in GE

Crotchets e1e1e1bg, in FE, EE, IE

Crotchets e1-a1e1-g1c1-e1b-d1g-b, our alternative suggestion

In the main text we literally interpret the A notation of the last 5 pairs of quavers. According to us, however, it is likely that four of them are written inaccurately. It is indicated by the notation of the 2nd figure in bar 392, in which both notes of the c1-e1 third were prolonged to a crotchet, and not only the bottom one, as in the remaining ones. It is more natural, both musically and pianistically, hence we suggest the version with analogously prolonged notes in all figures as an alternative solution. The versions of the editions resulted from the arbitrary revision of the A notation (by GE) and of the GE notation (by the remaining editions).
