Fingering

b. 15-23

composition: Op. 10 No 8, Etude in F major

No fingering in A (→FEGE)

Fingering in EE

..

The indications added by Fontana in EE describe the same fingering that Chopin indicated in bars 1-9. What is interesting is the fact that Fontana did not faithfully copy the indications from these bars, yet he performed a new edition, in which generally – yet not always – there are fewer digits than for the first time.

Fingering in FE

..

Chopin's fingering given in the main text – in bar 29 in the R.H., in bar 30 in the L.H. – was added in a proofreading of FE. It was also reproduced in GE, yet inaccurately – the 3rd digit in bar 29 was omitted. In EE Fontana completed the indications in the entire 8-bar section after similar passages in bars 1-8.
