Fingering in A

No fingering in FE (→GE,EE)

Our suggestion based on A & FES

The '1' digits at the end of bars 5 and 13 (and 45) are written in A. It is hard to determine why none of them is present in FE (→GE,EE). In any case, Chopin's entry in FES in bars 45-46 confirms both the fingering and the need for its indication. Therefore, in the main text we give the 1s written in A. (The fingering written in FES in bar 46 is also given by us in bar 6 – cf. General Editorial Principlesp. 17.)
