b. 37-39

composition: Op. 10 No 7, Etude in C major

..

A (→FE→EE,GE1→GE2) has naturals before b1, the upper note of the last semiquaver in bars 38-39. The unnecessary accidentals were removed in GE3 (→GE4), yet adding a  before b1 at the end of bar 37, more justified from the formal point of view. Moreover, in the sources there is also an unnecessary  before the first c1 in bar 38. In the main text we do not include any of these signs.
