In As Chopin emphasises the end of the four-bar section with an A
bass note played at the beginning of the bar 20. It is most probably related to a slightly different harmonic course too – see the previous note. The rhythm of the L.H. also comes into play – in the final version, all bars consistently begin with a rest, while in As bars 20 and 23-24 have crotchets at the beginning. The same in bar 28, where the accompanying voices are not listed in As, which we interpret as a repetition of the version of bar 20.
