  b. 14

Sixth in JC & EF

f in PE

In relation to the version of [AI] (→JC) and EF, in [A] (→PE) Chopin slightly reduced the texture of the accompaniment in this and the previous bar. He also underlined its syncopated character with the use of accents (cf. also the remark concerning the R.H.). In bar 14 the change concerns only the graphic and pianistic issues, for if we consider the authentic pedalling, the sound effect of both versions is the same, as far as the harmony is concerned.
