Fingering in A

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fingering in EE

Our variant suggestion

The '1' fingering digit written in A in bar 7 over the fourth in the R.H. may refer only to its bottom note, therefore, we move it under the stave (the atypical position of this digit can be explained with the fact that Chopin, allegedly, planned to include the fingering for both notes of the fourth). In FE (→GE) the hint was omitted, perhaps due to a misunderstanding of its meaning. In the fingering added by Fontana in EE (in bars 7 and 15) the bottom note is supposed to be struck with the 3rd finger, while the changes introduced in the fingering of semiquavers prove that the composer's friend completely misinterpreted Chopin's indications in this case.
