b. 127

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

No slur in GE & FE (literal reading→EE)

Slur in FE, contextual interpretation
..

In the main text we add the ending of the slur, since in the previous bar its shape in FE suggested that it should be continued.

category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Editorial revisions

issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Uncertain slur continuation

b. 127-157

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

These bars are absent in FE1, since in the only known copy coming from this impression, the leaf containing pages nos. 5-6 is missing (including b. 105-168).

issues: Incomplete sources

b. 127-129

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

..

In A, bars 127 and 129 are written down in an abridged manner as a repetition of the preceding bar.

issues: Abbreviated notation of A

b. 127-128

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

in b. 127-128 in A (→FE→GE)

in b. 127 in EE

No sign in GE1a
..

Both the  mark having been shortened by EE (it was led to the end of the line) and it having been overlooked by GE1a are most probably the engravers' mistakes.

category imprint: Differences between sources

issues: Errors in GE , EE inaccuracies

b. 127

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

Trill without ending in AsI & A (→GE→FE,EE,FESB)

Trill with ending, our variant suggestion
..

The ending of the trill is not written out either in AsI or in the sources of the piano part; however, it is present in the violin voice of GEorch (→FEorch). It seems likely that it is merely a notation difference, hence in the main text we suggest this ending in a variant form. Same in analogous b. 167, 199 and 239. See also b. 131.
