Dots & accent in FE (→GE,EE)

Our suggestion

All performance indications in the R.H. – dots, accents and slurs – were added by Chopin in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). According to us, the engraver, by adding a short accent to the gcrotchet, could have misinterpreted Chopin's entry in a proof copy. Therefore, in the main text we propose a long accent – cf. the note to bars 61-62.
