Fingering in A

FE (→GE)

EE

Our suggestion

The fingering in the L.H. was written by Chopin in A, yet in FE (→GE) it was inaccurately reproduced – lack of digits in the last group of semiquavers in bar 89 and at the beginning of bar 90 is probably accidental. On the other hand, Chopin completed the fingering in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE), by adding the digits '1' and '2' in the middle group in bar 89. As all authentic digits complement each other, we include them all in the main text. In EE Fontana developed Chopin's fingering drawn from FE.
