  b. 36-38

In FE1 the crotchets in the middle R.H. voice are placed between subsequent quavers in the top voice, closer to the previous than to the next one, with which they are to be played. It can result in doubts as to the synchronization of both voices:

  • the R.H. crotchets are placed clearly before the respective L.H. crotchets,
  • the minims in b. 40-42 (placed in a similar manner) are to be played simultaneously with the preceding quaver, hence differently.

In FE2 the R.H. crotchets were moved so that they clearly combine with the following, uneven quavers. We do not reproduce this difference in our transcriptions (it does not influence the sound if read carefully).
The same applies to b. 52-54.
