In the main text we present consistent and logical slurring of FE (only at the beginning of b. 497 the slur's ending/extention from previous bars is missing). They are present in GE, despite different notation of GC, where the slurs in line-ending bars 496, 504 and 512 may actually suggest continuation (except b. 520) but for the lack of their completion at the beginning of bars 497, 505 and 513. EE has varied slurring: twice a three-bar slurs and twice two times longer. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Inaccuracies in GC |

In GE1 (→FE), bar 503 is the last one in the line. However, contrary to GE1, the notation of the slur in FE is erroneous – the slur in bar 503 ends on the last quaver, although the beginning of the slur in bar 504 suggests continuation. EE interpreted it as an inaccuracy of the slur in bar 504 and separated the slur at the transition between these bars. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE |

In A bar 505 is the last one on the page and the slurs in this and the next bar do not fit together – the slur in bar 505, although it does not go beyond the bar line, suggests continuation, whereas in bar 506 a new slur clearly begins. In this situation, the version of GE is most probably a result of Chopin's proofreading, since it seems to be unthinkable that the engraver of GE1 would have interpreted the slurs of the base text in this way on his own initiative.

The inaccurate slur of A, which starts slightly too early, was misinterpreted in FE (→EE). In turn, the inaccuracy of FE – the end of the slur in b. 505 suggests continuation, which is not confirmed by b. 506 in a new line, which does not contain an ending of that slur – resulted in a further erroneous extension of the slur in EE. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , Inaccurate slurs in A |

In the Chopinesque notation, the articulation markings placed over the part of the R.H. are binding also for the L.H. in this context. Due to this reason, we give this undoubtedly authentic notation of A in the main text. At the same time, it is consistent, since the passage in bars 503-505 also has a slur only over the R.H. On the other hand, the authenticity of the slurs and dots added in GE1 (→FE→EE) cannot be entirely excluded, since such separate markings for the L.H. were also sometimes used by Chopin. The fact that the markings appear at the beginning of the bar and not from the moment of the R.H. passing to the upper stave suggests, according to us, that the additions were performed by the reviser. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |
