Crotchets in GE1 & FE (→EE)

Only R.H. crotchets in GE2

Dotted crotchets suggested by the editors

In the main text we suggest prolonging the separated R.H. octaves after the authentic notation in analogous situations in b. 37-40. We also suggest prolonging B in b. 13, since there is no visible reason to approach that note differently than the R.H. octave (this figure does not appear in the Polonaise in this form anymore).
While rearranging the layout of the L.H. beams GE2 omitted the additional stem to B in b. 13.
