  b. 38

Rhythm in A, literal reading

A, possible interpretation

FE (→EE3)

GE with shifted accent

EE4 with two accents

The rhythm of A, interpreted literally, is unclear. Aligning the notes of the L.H. under the part of the R.H. suggests that Chopin thought of an analogous version to the version of bar 34 in this place. In the main text we adopt the version of FE (→EE3), as it is the latest authentic source, while the notation therein is faultless and unequivocal. The suggested variants include also different placement and number of accents in GE and EE4, most probably or certainly non-authentic.
