a-d1 on 2nd beat in As, contextual interpretation

f-a-d1 on 2nd beat in AI, contextual interpretation

a-d1 on 3rd beat in A & GE

a-d1-a1 on 3rd beat in FE (→EE)

The crotchet specifying the sound of the Neapolitan chord in bars 45 and 61 underwent a several-stage-long evolution from As to the corrected version of FE (→EE). Both the content of the chord (dyad) and the moment of its strike was changed. In the main text, we give the latest version, introduced in the last phase of proofreading of FE. The version of As is not unequivocal – we assume that there is no f note there, which ensures a possibility of choice of any of the undoubtedly or potentially authentic source versions.

The naturals lowering d1 to d1 are present only in the editions (we give a sign of an unknown origin made in pencil in AI in brackets), yet the part of the R.H. does not leave any doubt as to the use of the Neapolitan chord.

Similarly in bars 109 and 125, see also bars 173 and 189.
