  b. 56

In the sources, the chord at the beginning of the bar is written monophonically, in spite of varying rhythmic values. Chopin, striving for a maximal simplicity of notation, would often use such notation (cf. e.g. the Etudes Op. 10, in E minor, No. 6, bar 20 i 46F major, No. 8, bar 47, 49 and 50C minor, No. 12, bar 57). In the places where the original notation can be improved without an excessive complication of the notation, we introduce relevant corrections.
