  b. 17-18

The differing abbreviated notation of AI and A could suggest that in the latter all four notes are supposed to have normal ("big") note heads. According to us, the notation of A, despite being simplified, is to be, however, interpreted in accordance with AI – in A we see the same abbreviation also in bar 36, in which the distinction of only the first A is beyond any doubt. Similarly in bar 19.

In GE1 (→GE1a), the first F in bar 18 is written as a small note. The mistake was corrected in GE2 (→GE3).
