b. 78-79

composition: Op. 28 No. 12, Prelude in G♯ minor

Bars 78-79 in A (→FE→EE)

No these bars in FC (→GE)
..

These bars were overlooked in FC (→GE). It is a typical mistake of copyists – the so-called haplography – where an element or fragment that should be written twice is written once; in this case, the discussed bars were overlooked, since they were very similar to b. 76-77 (which preceded them). Fontana committed such a mistake also in the Prelude No. 21 in B Major, b. 54.
