Staccato dot suggested by the editors |
We consider the missing staccato dot under the bass F to be an inaccuracy of notation. Admittedly, it is the only accompaniment figure among the similar ones that does not require a hand transfer after playing the bass note – the f semiquavers can be performed with fingers 15; however, it does not seem that Chopin could have taken this into account, since he put a dot in analogous b. 58. In any case, indicating a possible performance difference on the basis of a missing mark is generally highly questionable in such a schematic accompaniment. An accidental oversight of a dot occurred in b. 23 too.
