  b. 29-36

R.H. quaver over the 6th L.H. note in GE

Regular rhythmic notation in FE (→EE)

In bars 29-36 (and further ones – cf. bars 48, 50, 51 & 53-62), GE has the quaver of the R.H. part placed directly over the last note of the 2nd L.H. triplet. In the editors' opinion, this is not in line with Chopin’s intentions; instead, it reflects the manner of the GE engraver.
