b. 5-6

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

No slur in EE

Slur in GC (→GE)

Slur in FE

..

The slur in GC (→GE), embracing the entire bar 5, is probably imprecise – cf. the slur of the upper voice and a similar situation in bars 13-14. This is probably due to misunderstanding the notation of the autograph (not very precise itself) by the copyist. In the main text we give the slur of FE. The notation of EE (no slur above the lower staff) may be regarded as the original revision of the slurring of that motif (similarly in bars 13-14).

b. 5

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

A long accent in EE and GC

Short accent in FE

Two accents in GE

..

In the main text we give the long accent, as can be seen in EE and GC. The placement and type of accent in FE (a short one above the L.H. minim) may have resulted from difficulties with deciphering the graphics of the hand-written base text. GE has the accent taken from  GC and another one, above the minim c in the L.H. This is certainly a revision, one of many of that type.

b. 5

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

Missing from GC is the  lowering G to G. The accidental was added in GE, the remaining sources also have it in place.

b. 5-22

composition: Op. 45, Prelude in C♯ minor

 in FE (→EE)

Our variant suggestion

..

The placement of  marks in bars 5-6 and analogous bars (bars 5-12 and 19-22 on the same page) shows consistent discrepancies between GE and FE (→EE). In the editors' opinion, both pedalling concepts are authentic and may be used in performance practice. For that reason we give the text in which they are shown as variants.

b. 5-7

composition: WN 17, Polonaise in B♭ major

1 octave in JC

2 octaves in EF

6 octaves in PE

..

Similarly as in bars 1-2, we consider the versions of JC and EF as a result of an erroneous reading of the autograph of the previous version of the Polonaise[AI]. Cf. also the remark concerning bars 3-4
