b. 13-14

composition: Op. 27 No 1, Nocturne in C# minor

No teaching fingering provided

Fingering in FEJ & FES

Fingering in FED

Both versions of teaching fingering

The teaching copies contain two undoubtedly different fingerings for this fragment. One is taken from #WfJ and #WfS, the other is a combination of Chopin's annotations in #WfD in this bar and in bar 16 when this figuration is repeated. In the main text we juxtapose these partly alternative fingerings. Cf. fingering in Sonata in B minor Op. 35, 3rd mvt., bar 31.
