Here, as well as in bar 12, yet not in bar 39, Chopin deleted semiquaver flags for the d
1-a1 tritone in the lower voice in FEcor, thus changing its rhythmic value for a crotchet. However, the correction was not included in FE (→GE,EE), despite the fact that the cancellation of those changes was not explicitly marked:
- in bar 4, next to the clearly deleted flags, there is a semiquaver-like sign, which may possibly be interpreted as a signal to return the flags;
- in bar 12 the flags' deletion was left without a commentary, yet in the margin a remark was deleted – not entirely legible – which probably concerned deletion of those flags.
It can be observed that the initial and, as it turned out, the final concept of the homogenous part of the R.H. in terms of sound and pianistics was subject to internal verification by Chopin until the very end of the Etude's publication process. See bars 3-4.
