Fourth & triad in AI & GE

Sixths in AF (→FEEE)

Fourth & sixth, our alternative suggestion

The d1 note on the 2nd beat of the bar seems to be Chopin's mistake in AF, since all analogous places feature b, which does not hamper the performance of the R.H. part (in AI Chopin would cross out even the d1 notes in b. 48 and 54). In turn, the sixth on the 3rd beat of the bar may be intentional – cf. b. 56, in which there is a sixth in a similar context, before the change of the bass note to G. Due to the above reason, we suggest a variant version with b in brackets as an alternative.
