In the main text we keep the unbeamed notation of the L.H. quavers, consistently used by Chopin both in AsI and A. Wherever an entire bar includes only such quavers (unbeamed), in GE (→FE,EE,FESB) the quavers were beamed in twos or fours. This was probably aimed at facilitating the engraving by reducing the number of elements of notation. Such changes in beaming are also in the R.H. as well as in further variations. We comment on them and reproduce them only in cases where a significant number of changes impacts the general graphic representation of the text – see Variation IV.
