Demisemiquaver in GE1, possible interpretation

Semiquaver in GE1, probable interpretation, FE (→EE) & GE2

GE1 features an erroneous R.H. rhythm on the 1st beat of the bar – a quaver, a semiquaver rest and a demisemiquaver. The mistake may be due to the value of the rest – addition of a dot results in a rhythm resembling the one present in GE in analog. b. 29 and in the same rhythm that can be found in b. 55. According to us, however, it is much more likely that it is the third beam that is a mistake – the e1-e2 octave should be a semiquaver (such a correction was performed in GE2). The engraver of GE1 could have generalised a beaming scheme containing additional, partial beams; such a scheme has already appeared twice in the preceding bars on this page.
