Rhythm

b. 48

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

Semiquavers in FE (→GE,EE) 

Crotchets in Ap
..

In Ap three last two-note chords of the lower voice in the R.H. are crotchets. After the previous (from the beginning of bar 47) five semiquavers, it means an attenuation of articulation (in this context semiquavers imply staccato, whereas crotchets – tenuto or legato), which corresponds to the final diminuendo.

b. 49

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

..

In CLI and FE (→EE) the fermata is only over the chord. We adopt the equivalent notation of Ap and GE with fermatas on the both sides of the chord.
