b. 170-172

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

Two slurs in GC

Tenuto slur in FE (→EE)

One slur in GE
..

The slurs in GC are written neglectfully, hence their meaning is unobvious – GE regarded them as parts of one slur. In the main text we give the slur of FE, displaying a characteristic, prolonged tenuto ending, analogous to the slur in the next phrase.

b. 170

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

Fingering written into FED

No teaching fingering
..

The double use of the 1st finger (cf. bar 171) was written in FED probably by Chopin.

b. 170

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

No slurs in A (contextual interpretation) & GE2

R.H. slur in A (possible interpretation→GE1→FE)

Slurs in both hands in EE
..

In the main text we assume that the slur (or slurs) begin only in bar 171.

b. 170

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

Crotchet a in FE (→GE) & EE3

Quaver a in EE1 (→EE2)
..

The missing stem extending a must be a mistake of EE1 (→EE2), corrected in EE3 most probably on the basis of comparison with analogous bar 525.
