Notation in AsI & A (→GE→EE,FESB)

Notation in FE

The notation of FE, with the demisemiquaver going beyond the 3rd note of the semiquaver triplet (in b. 104 and 106-108), is contrary to the Chopinesque understanding of this kind of combination of a dotted rhythm with a triplet – see the note on b. 45-46.
