b. 39-40
As in b. 35-36, in A Chopin overlooked some necessary accidentals, mainly in b. 40 – a to d2 and a to e2 in the R.H. and a to e1 and a to d2 in the L.H. (the use of accidentals in b. 39 is not fully codified due to the octave sign, as a result of which the to e3 and the to d2 could be considered superfluous). All necessary accidentals – subject to the situation described in the brackets above – were already added in GE1 (→FE1,EE,GE2→GE3). In EE a to d2 before the 6th semiquaver in b. 39 was also added.
FESB repeated the accidentals of GE1; however, it was a instead of a that was placed to the 6th semiquaver in b. 39, which resulted in an erroneous e1 note; moreover, a to d2 was added before the 8th semiquaver in this bar, which does not make sense – the accidental, if necessary at all, should be before the 6th semiquaver.
