  b. 32-34

Both in JC and in EF the pairs of chords at the transition between bars 32 and 33 and 33 and 34 are combined with one slur. In PE, there is a special notation, in which three slurs combine the corresponding chord components of each pair (the lower one is a tie sustaining c1). As such type of notation was used by Chopin, particularly in his early pieces, we give it in the main text.
