Rhythmic notation in FE (→EE)

GE

Our suggestion

In the main text we propose an addition to the notation of the second half of the bar similar to the more precise notation of FE1 in bar 8 and GE in bar 22. The notation in FE (→EE) is probably authentic (earlier) and indicates a less careful development of the base text for FE1 – [A1] by Chopin.
