The rhythm written on the 2nd beat of the bar both in A1 and the copies of [A2] – CJ and CK (as well as EL) – is either incomplete (missing indication of an irregular group) or erroneous (the semiquavers should have been demisemiquavers). In order to minimise the scope of an editorial intervention, in the main text we suggest the former; the latter was implemented by Balakirev in his copy. In practice, the difference between them is negligible.
