b. 125-126

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

4 slurs in GC & FE (→EE)

2 slurs in GE

..

In GE, the L.H. slurs encompass the entire bars. It possibly results from a misinterpretation of the hardly legible writing of GC (intermittent ink flow).

b. 125

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

Slur in A, most probable reading

Slurs in A (possible reading→GEFEEE)

..

The slurs of A could be interpreted as GE (→FEEE) did, since the slur in bar 126 (on a new page) begins over the 1st note in the bar. However, the shape of the slur does not exclude continuation, whereas the slur in bar 125 is clearly dragged beyond the bar line, which makes the intention of a continuous slur much more likely.

b. 125-126

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

2 long accents in EE & GE2

Short & long accents in EE

2 short accents in GE2

..

The accents in A are clearly long and this is how they were reproduced in GE1 (→FE). The engraver of EE, who, as it seems, considered long accents to be diminuendo signs, shortened the first one, most probably being convinced that it is an accent. In GE2 a similar operation was performed on both signs.

b. 125-129

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

No L.H. slurs in A

Slur in bars 125-126 in GE1 (→FE)

2 slurs in bars 125-128 in EE

Slur in bars 125-129 in GE2

..

According to us, the slur in the L.H. in bars 125-126, present in GE1 (→FEEE), could have been added by Chopin. It is indicated by corrections of the slurs in the R.H. – if it were Chopin who ordered to combine the slurs in the R.H. at the transition between those bars, he could have also added a slur in the L.H., as if to emphasise that the one-bar slurs from bars 121-124 are no more valid here. EE added also a slur in bars 127-128 (after the slur the edition has in the R.H.). The slurring of both hands was homogenised also in GE2. In the main text we preserve the notation of A, since the slurs of EE and GE2 are certainly arbitrary, whereas the slur added in GE1, even if it comes from Chopin, is probably to be related to the corrections of the erroneous slurs in the R.H.
