Fontana's fingering in EE |
At first glance, the entry in FED contains two fingering digits over the 9th and 10th semiquavers – 1 and 4. However, although the 4th finger on D
does not raise doubts, the mark concerning E, if it actually marked the 1st finger, would lead to an inconvenient fingering, generally differing from the one Chopin gave in the previous bars. Therefore, it is either a mistake (it could have been, e.g. an unfinished '4' that someone began writing over the wrong note) or the meaning of the mark is different.
In the main text, we give the fingering in FEFo, although in this case Chopin's hand is doubtful. Possibly, the pupil copied the indication given her in bar 310. This fingering is consistent with other entries in the pupils' copies (taking into account only the '4' in FED), EE and, first of all. with the previous printed Chopinesque indications.
