  b. 18-20

Fingering written into FEJ

Fingering written into FES

No teaching fingering

Our variant suggestion based on FEJ & FES

Similarly to analog. b. 15, the fingering versions of FEJ and FES differ in the performing manner of the e crotchet in b. 19. For the remaining notes (until c in b. 20), both copies indicated the same fingering, yet in a different way. Under the f quaver in b. 19, FES initially contained the digit '1', which was then transformed into a '2'. According to us, it was not a change of a finger, but a correction of a mistake.
