e-c1 in A (→FEGE,EE)

The version of As in bar 44 (and bar 60, which is its repetition) is hypothetical to a certain extent – we assume that the inkblot at the pitch of is a blurred deletion of this note. In AI Chopin introduced a rhythmic innovation – a rest on the 3rd beat of the bar, however, eventually, he used both variants of the rhythm as an element differentiating bars 33-48 and 49-64: three crotchets in bar 44 and two in bar 60. Cf. bar 49 and 53.
