The version with tied G, having been entered into [A2], is almost certainly later. On the other hand, Chopin had a few opportunities to add that tie while proofreading FE, hence it is uncertain whether he actually considered that change to be final. It is easy to point out the advantages of each of the versions:
- sonic consistency if we repeat G,
- emphasis on new elements of the harmony (fifth and prime of the E
major chord) and of the texture (octave doubling of the soprano) if we hold the bass note.
Due to that reason we give the main text a variant form.
