Accent on G in GC (→GE) & FE

Four accents in EE

Our variant suggestion

In all sources there is an accent under G, whereas the three subsequent accents under F, D and B1 were probably added by Chopin in the base text to EE. In the main text we include them in a variant form. A similar measure was introduced in EE in Scherzo, bars 56-57 and analog.
