Just like in the previous two bars, the missing R.H. bottom voice slur is either the original notation of [AG] or an oversight of the engraver of GE1. category imprint: Differences between sources |

Just like in b. 39-42, in the main text we give the slur of AF, which emphasises the a1-b1 step under b. 132-133 as the ending of the tenor voice. This slur – not entirely clear – was initially interpreted in FE as a slur combining the d1-a1 crotchets. This version is preserved in EE, whereas in FE Chopin prolonged this erroneous slur to a version tantamount to the longer slur of GE. According to us, this ad hoc correction does not have to mean that the composer definitely abandoned the slur of AF; in turn, it suggests that Chopin, to the very end, did not consider any of them to be final. The slur of GE, indicating the actual articulation of the L.H. part, may be then considered an equal variant. Taking into account Chopin's hesitation, as an alternative version we also suggest combining the relevant indications of both versions into one slur. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions; Corrections & alterations issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Inaccurate slurs in A , Authentic corrections of FE |

We give the staccato dots under the bass notes after GE1, in which they are absent only in b. 135-136. According to us, it makes it possible for us to consider (with as high probability as possible) that Chopin's intention was to mark all those notes with dots. The clearly defective version of FE (→EE) probably resulted from the accumulation of the oversights by the engraver of FE1 with the earlier ones, in the handwritten basis for that edition. The omission of the marks in b. 137-139 in GE2 seems to be a revision. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

As in bar 127, in the main text we propose in variant form (in brackets) the ending of the trill that appears in the 1st flute part in GEork (→FEork). category imprint: Editorial revisions |
