Synchronization sign written into FED

The marking indicating the way the roulade should be performed against the L.H. quavers was written in FED. This is one of several examples proving that this type of irregular groups can be performed rhythmically freely, emphasizing the motivic structure of the run. Another such sign can be found, e. g. in the Nocturne in B minor, Op. 9 No. 1, bar 3, also included in Ms. Dubois's copy.

FED contains synchronization marks in the R.H. part, which indicate that the semibreves are to be performed simultaneously with the minims at the beginning of the bar. The need for such an indication resulted from the placement of those semibreves, repeated after A, i.e. in the middle of the bars – we reproduce that notation in the graphical transcription (version "transcription").
